using teacher aides

Post by P Bridgehouse » Fri Feb 21, 2003 4:46 am

I'm looking for ideas on effective use of teacher aides (adults hired by the school to assist the teacher) in ESL classes and/or mainstream content classes with LEP students grades 5 - 12. How do you use your aide time? What tasks to they perform?

You could have the teacher aide grade papers for you. They can also pass out papers to the kids so they could get to know the kids by name. If they are capable, they could also tutor students who may be having more problems than the rest. They can take attendance and help you do general things around the classroom.
