Ch. 3 in out textbook had to do with building partnerships through collaboration.
You can only have true collaboration when all members feel their input is valued, the goal is clear to each other, they share decision making, and they can tell they're being respected. This is important when working to meet a child's needs when they need assistance for anything.
There are many ways to collaborate in the class, and one is having two teachers in one class working a team. There are many different styles the teachers could use, but they have to work together and assess the students' needs to see which ones will work the best, because just like each child is different, each class is different.
Though with this, collaboration is important in the classroom, it's also a good strategy to use in many places outside thus. once you develop it, it becomes a habit and it's helpful no matter where you are.
