Co teaching

I learned a lot about co teaching today because two people in my group did the presentation on it. It was interesting. I taught Special Ed for one year, and it was a self contained class. My students only had me as their teacher. I had an aid who came in one or two periods to help out. I did not like that environment. I think kids should be exposed to different teachers regardless they are regular students or students with IEPs. Some kids get along and learn better with certain teachers. Also each teacher is different too. Kids need to be exposed to different personality. I kind of like the coteaching method, however, I am worried that it might turn out to be the teacher/aid relationship instead of two different teachers working together to better help the students learning. When one teacher explains, the other can reinforce, it would be great.
