Why You Need A Paraprofessional Binder for Special Education

Managing a team is one of the most difficult duties of a special education teacher. I remember thinking, no one taught me how to manage adults! Supporting adults is a HUGE part of our job as special educators. It’s important to build a strong team to have a great year. Creating and using a paraprofessional binder in your classroom can be super helpful! Furthermore, you can use this to train new adults in your room too!

Every year, I use this paraprofessional binder to train classroom aides. It can be used to learn more about your room! It is completely editable. And also comes with an entire paraprofessional binder of information of already put together for your classroom. Best of all, change this information to best serve your classroom!

What is included in the Paraprofessional Binder?

• General Building & Classroom Information
• Assistant Expectations
• Individual Responsibilities
• Role of the Classroom Teacher
• Team Communication
• Instruction and Monitoring Goals
• Teaching Students with Language Impairments and/or Autism
• Classroom Procedures
• Behavior Management
• Classroom and School Behavior System
• Promoting Independence
• Confidentiality
• Helping the Classroom Run

• Emergencies

Conclusion

To build a strong team, we must successfully communicate with everyone with a paraprofessional binder. We don’t get any extra time as a team so having a location to store information is important.

In other words, this helps everyone on the team. It also gives everyone a place to go to review information at any given time. You can also keep everyone organized and on track with a paraprofessional binder. Also, this can be used for accountability! You can find this resource on Teachers Pay Teachers!
