Lucinda S. Spaulding
This presentation provides research results from a systematic grounded theory study conducted in an urban school district in Eastern Iowa.

The theory developed by the study explains how teachers can overcome problems frequently encountered in co-teaching. Recommendations for how administrators and teachers can apply this theory to improving and facilitating co-teaching partnerships are provided.

The purpose of this session is to provide an overview of evidence based best practices for inclusive science instruction and to equip teachers with applicable strategies for scaffolding instruction and responding to learner needs based on research in special education and science instruction. As a result of this session, participants will learn strategies and methods for helping students learn to independently design experiments, use the scientific process, and develop critical thinking skills. There will also be an emphasis on effective co-teaching practices and employing instructional strategies for reinforcing skills and content knowledge across the curriculum, providing more time for instruction …
