Team Teaching with English and Science (fwd)

[Betty Dawn Hamilton <bhamilt@TENET.EDU>]

Group, I moderate some discussion groups on the Tenet network.  Following
is a query from the math group (we also have a reading one).  If you have
ideas, you can send them to me and I'll forward them to the group, or you
can send them to Sam himself.

I've never met him, but he and Sandie Walser, another math teacher, have
created some really neat hands-on math activities.  A couple of math
teachers in my building came home really praising the workshop.  I
anticipate that he and his colleagues will come up with some great ideas.

Subject: Team Teaching with English and Science

My principal has given me permission to research how three or four of us
could team teach.  I already have a willing science and English teacher,
and I'm looking for a social studies teacher.  I went to him and asked.
We want to identify and have solutions for potential problems.  We also
want a good plan, so our students won't suffer too much while we learn.
We would be interested in thoughts on:

Scheduling students
Common conference period
Ideas for cross-curriculum projects
etc.

Thanks for any help you can give!
