[quote=Anonymous]Well, my kid has physical disabilities and there is always a para-educator in the room. While I appreciate everything the para educator does for the children who need it, at the same time we are working on my son doing for himself. So there is a fine line between helping enough and helping too much. At age 3 and 4 there were 2 para-educators in the room. At K-2 there is one paraeducator. At age 7 (2nd grade), my son never uses the para-educator anymore, but he got substantial help in K and 1. I know this is about kids with physical disabilities, but that is my advice for para-educator working for kids with physical disabilities. To this day, I appreciate the para-educator who worked with my child on zipping his jacket at age 3. She must have spent hours on this task. [/quote]
