Teaching Assistants & Aides Support Series 2024-25: Strategies to Engage with Communities and Families
TAs and aides are welcome to join us in year seven of this series dedicated to addressing the professional learning needs of our first responders: TA's and aides!
In this 20-hour CTLE course, participants will meet once each month to deepen their understanding of their communities focusing on English language Learners and Newcomer students. We'll engage in community asset mapping and using the work of author Dan Anderson, we'll practice analysis and reflection around how our language habits can support educational goals.
This course includes 16 hours of synchronous meetings plus asynchronous online discussion, allowing participants time to practice new skills while strengthening communication within this unique network of paraprofessionals.
