[Pibe-division] paraprofessionals

[Krystal Guillory]

I use paras to reinforce what I've taught when the student in is the regular education setting. I also use paras to produce literary materials once I taught them how to scan, edit, & format. 

Unless the para has taken a Braille 2 or nemeth course, I usually handle all the math & science production. And, I make sure that I have told him or her new symbols the student will see. 

In short, I teach the kids Braille.
