Abstract
Collaboration is more than two professionals working in the same classroom; it is changing instruction to provide curriculum-focused interventions in classroom settings. In order to combine expertise and skills of both speech-language pathologists and general education teachers, several pre-requisites must be in place. (1) Both professionals must share an underlying theoretical perspective; (2) both professionals must have goals commonly developed to address requisite skills for grade level standards; (3) roles must be defined; (4) use of strategic instruction that is based on effective practices, and finally (5), reflection and revision provide closure and plans for moving the instruction forward into the next lesson. Co-planning is a common component across these five steps that requires ongoing communication on the part of all professionals for successful collaboration.
