This session focuses on the power of co-teaching between mathematics teachers and special education teachers in fostering inclusive and rigorous learning environments for all students, regardless of their disability status. In this session, we highlight the potential of different co-teaching models as tools to honor students’ diverse learning needs, language backgrounds, and cultural identities in math classes. Participants will engage in reflecting on their co-teaching experiences, constructing an overview of six co-teaching models, and discussing the ways that co-teaching can promote access, rigor, and inclusion for students.
