However, the parapro constantly does things in class to cause the students to get off task. During the morning work time, she will cut up with the students and call them to her desk. Then, during small group time when bothe the teacher and her have a group, she will get up from her group after the students have started working to go and do other things. The teacher has talked to her about this a little bit. The problem is that he does not know what else to say without making things awkward between them. He believes this causes disruption in the class when the small groups are not being tended to like they should be. What are some ways to tactfully handle this situation? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) If the teacher has tried multiple times to inform his para of the proper way to do things and has made her aware of the situation. I feel that the next step would be for him to discuss this with a administration. Awkwardness between him and his parapro is less important than his students learning and doing what they need to do.
