1:1s Vs Classroom Aide
How should the roles be differentiated?

Are you referring to a 1:1 that is assigned to a specific student? I have worked with PCAs, they are assigned a specific student through medical access. In that case. That is their one and only student. I do not expect them to work with other students for a long length of time. However I will ask them to pair their student for things like social skills or group practice while I am working on a lesson. A classroom Para for me is my right hand person. They are an extension of me. I will teach a lesson they will review and practice the lesson. They will help with behaviors and if I am not available the PCA can go to the Para for help when needed
