  Case: Co-teacher problems
Ms. Lockard's Pre-K classroom is a co-teaching classroom. There is a special education teacher, regular education teacher, and a regular education para-professional in the classroom. The accommodations that are in place for the students are only being followed by the regular education teacher and the regular education para professional. The teacher has documented this and discussed the issue with administration. The administrators say they are going to follow up with the special education teacher but has not done so. The special education students are not receiving the assistance that they are required to present by law. What should the regular education do to ensure that all students in the classroom receive what they need in order to be successful?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Wow!!! This is first. Most of the time, it is the opposite. I know that you have talked to administration, but try having a conversation with the special education teacher. Since you are willing to assist the special education students more. Until the problem is addressed by administration, you should work more with the special education students and allow her to work more with the general education students.
