Episode Synopsis
Every special education classroom needs a leader. As educators, we must put forth our best effort to be those leaders. This episode will explore strategies for becoming a better leader in self-contained settings and focusing on effectively managing paraprofessionals. Acknowledging the invaluable contributions of paraprofessionals, we dive into the importance of clear communication, empowerment, and collaboration. Regular team meetings, involvement in student planning, and recognition of paraprofessionals' efforts go a long way in our classrooms. Tune in for tips addressing challenges such as excessive personal conversations and conflict resolution while advocating for self-reflection and continuous growth as a leader.Resources Mentioned:Free training: 3 Simple and Powerful Ways to Cultivate Independence in Your Special Education Classroom Show Notes: https://chalkboardsuperhero.com/episode23
