This Power Point Presentation was designed to be used as a professional development resource. I created this presentation after I was asked to hold a workshop in order to help the other staff members in my school to better understand what co-teaching really is. Included are slides on each of the 6 different types of co-teaching models, the pros and cons to each, and videos that will help to show what effective co-teaching should look like.

The movie La Amistad is a true story about a group of African slaves who successfully revolted from their slave traders and ended up on the shore of Long Island. There is one scence from the movie that shows what life was like for slaves traveling the Middle Passage. A link to the scence is included, along with questions that makes students think about the treatment that these slaves received. Visuals are always great to reinforce the content.
