Tools to Communicate with Paraprofessionals for Smooth Sailing in Your Classroom
Thursday, November 21st from 10:00am-11:00am
Are you a teacher who manages one or more paraprofessionals in your classroom? This session will provide tools and strategies to help your team work smoothly in and out of the classroom. Effective communication is crucial when managing paraprofessionals. Develop a positive and supportive relationship with your paraprofessionals to help them effectively support your students. Paraprofessionals are encouraged to collaborate with their teacher or take materials back to share with their colleagues.
Give Me A Break: Troubleshooting Common Challenges During Breaks To Increase Transition Success
Friday, November 22nd from 10:00-11:00am
During previous OCALICON sessions we have emphasized the importance of structuring the different types of breaks throughout a
student's day to differentiate between reinforcement, sensory, and in-the-moment breaks. We often hear from school teams that the
hardest part of implementing breaks is structuring the breaks in a way that makes it easy to transition students back to scheduled
activities, especially work times. In this session, we will address some of the common management challenges during breaks and provide
some practical examples for addressing those challenges.
