About the Workshop
Paraeducators are important members of the Special Education team. This course offers them a prospect to strengthen their understanding and knowledge base to work as part of the collaborative instructional team to help students accelerate their achievement and mitigate the learning loss caused by the pandemic. The interactive workshop will explore the 13 qualifying disabilities with an in-depth dive into autism, ADHD, and emotional disturbance, strategies for working with students, and building strong student relationships in person and virtually. The participants will understand the qualifying disabilities, the laws surrounding the current special education initiatives, and providing relevant accommodations in the general education setting. Participants will leave this session with relevant strategies for the most common disabilities and resources to use and improve their daily practice through distance learning.
Participants will learn advanced skills for working as an effective special education team, communicating effectively with staff and students, collaborating, resolving conflicts, and addressing behavior. This collaborative interactive workshop will provide the participants with the background knowledge and skills to be coordinated contributing members of the special education team.
