It does help if you know something about what they're teaching so you can collaborate, and you also need to keep each other updated about the kids. Daily anecdotals helped us a lot, but we also officially met each Thursday after school for a face to face and that time became really important to us. We could also discuss the bulletin boards as needed. Some subjects just need more space than others at certain times of the year, and then you need to co-operate and share freely instead of making too many hard and fast rules. We team taught the first few days of school, so we could both bond with the children, meet parents, set up procedures and get to know each other a bit. We also team taught at the end so that we could both be there for the fun, and the goodbyes. We also both attended parent conferences, meetings, special events like the open house. The children and their parents really ended up feeling like they got two full teachers attention, and the reaction was invariably positive. Have a great year.
