Description
Building a cohesive and collaborative team is critical when supporting students with disabilities. How your team operates and functions has a direct impact on student learning and growth. By employing some simple strategies, easy activities, and thoughtful reflection, you can help your team be more team-tastic!
In this course from Noodle Nook, Ayo Jones shares guidelines and best practices for improving team collaboration and support in special education. This session works well for training and preparing paraeducators for their special education job duties and as a partnered training between a teacher and their para partner.
This session is part of the Special Education Paraeducator Training Series. The series is all about preparing paraeducators (and their teacher partners) to support students with disabilities in the classroom. Most importantly, as part of this series, you’ll develop a better understanding of how important your team is for students with disabilities as well as how to make it better. Guided by best practices, general guidelines, and a student-centered mentality, your special education team will be stronger and more effective.
