Skill-Based Strategies For Paraeducators: Helping Students Succeed

You know that paraeducators play a critical role in helping students learn. That means they need ongoing support and training. This handbook provides scores of specific strategies that parapros can immediately implement – on the spot, as soon as the learning difficulty appears. To make this resource user-friendly, we have identified and described the learning difficulty in concise and clear behavioral terms. Next, we list and describe various techniques paras can use to help the student compensate for the difficulty and find success. Knowing one size never fits all, we have gathered various best practices and presented them in this easy-to-use format. A handbook, not a cumbersome textbook, Skill-Based Strategies for Paraeducators will make a difference for students.

“The (Skill-Based Strategies)paraeducator handbooks are clear and concise and provide excellent information and strategies for paras”.
Onondaga-Cortland-Madison BOCES, Syracuse, NY

"The 40 ESE paraeducator participants were excited to have a training designed especially for them. The Paraeducator Handbook that was used as a reference guide for the training was an integral part of our day. It's highlights included an overview of the requirements of IDEA, classroom management, team building and how it ties into the job of paraeducator and, in turn, how this can affect positive student achievement. I would encourage any District to utilize LEARN and this Paraeducator Handbook to support the great job that all paraeducators do for our students".

“We love the Paraeducator Handbook. It is an excellent resource and we want to put one in the hands of each paraeducator."

“The Paraeducator Handbook gave them a framework and definition of how big their job is. It also gave me a framework of activities and I knew exactly how to use it for my purposes with my group. Paras are very pleased with the training and never felt they had a clear grasp of their role until they had this handbook.”

"The Paraeducator Handbook is a great resource! The books had a positive impact on our paras, and we would like to do a repeat of the workshop for our new staff."
