- Bouncing off each other, a double act; jumping in, adding on, asking each other questions. Having an extra set of eyes and ears on the learners, Who is having difficulty understanding this? Who needs extra help? Who gets this and needs extending?
- Having opportunities to peel off students that need the extra help, whilst the other teacher takes the main group.
- Drawing together commonalities of learning needs. It feels easier to target learners needs through flexible groupings.
- Children able to flow between teachers, listening to teaching and joining in if they feel if it is learning they need.
- Different teacher observations of learning behaviours. Each teacher may have different and similar views and relationships with the learner. Ideas can be shared.
- Fluid groupings, children flow between groups according to their needs.
- Learning from each other. Being able to observe best practice as it happens naturally in the classroom setting. Taking ideas and innovating them to suit own teaching style and the needs of your learners.
- Fun and dynamic teaching!
