Supporting the Instructional Process provides a solid introduction to teaching concepts, along with practice exercises - so paraeducators and partner teachers share a common language to describe instructional processes and properly prepare for and promote student learning. This Training Module also coaches participants on ways to develop student independence and identify and change classroom variables to meet the needs of students.

Each Training Module provides solid instruction on key content knowledge and collaborative skills - so your paraeducators learn how to effectively meet the needs of students with disabilities and, at the same time, receive ongoing training and professional development as required under NCLB and IDEA.

Each Training Module can be used independently or as part of a comprehensive training package and includes:

• A CD-ROM containing participant handouts, as well as overheads and resources
• Suggested timing, content breaks, pacing and activities for a single 6-hour session, two 3-hour sessions or four 1-1/2 hour sessions
• Facilitator tips to create and provide an inviting learning environment along with resources for brushing up on topics, such as glossaries and definitions of must-know legal terms
