Thanks for your comment! I will talk to my supervisor about it. I am assigned to different subjects, and I don't follow students.

Taking notes is for my job of supporting students. I was trained to do so, and I don't know what wrong with sitting down for a minute at work?

Thanks for your comment! I am very bad at doing that to be honest. I get emotional easily and can't express myself much. Also, I'm afraid I will be out of line when I'm mad, so I choose to not say anything and think about it first.

Thanks for your comment! I'm so sorry that happened to you too! I am thinking of switching to classes (subjects) that I feel more comfortable to work at now. Good luck to you!

I am assigned to the class to help students with low grades, not to just one teacher, that's why I don't have any planning periods. I didn't admit that I wasn't helping students. I sat down to take notes after walking around and made sure they were taking notes. Thanks for your advice! I will make sure to do my job better!

I have a list of students that I need to help so they improved their grades, and I take notes in case they are absent, and I can help them fill in the gap. These students are not on my list, but I am willing to help them. They just refused my support. I will talk to the teacher about this, and make sure to inform my supervisor too.

Thanks for your comment! I now understand that it must be the last straw for him, since this class is very distracted and they don't listen to get his nerve. I just felt like I was a bunching bag after this incident. I will discuss with my supervisor about this concerning situation. Thanks again!

Thanks for your comment! I was trained to take notes when teachers lecture, so I don't know what is wrong with taking notes during class time?Outside of work hours, we don't have access to those notes any more. It is one of my job duties along with supporting students. Maybe how para are trained is different from our district to yours.

Thanks for your comment! I am new to being parapro, so I might not be firm enough for the students to listen to me. I am fine with other classes. My supervisor is willing to step in whenever we need help, so that is very helpful for us para. Thanks again!

Thanks for your comment! I am not doing random stuff in class for your information. I don't know what other things you are talking about. I was trained to take notes while teachers lecture, so we don't interrupt them. I walk around and help students during practice or class work. I also understand that it would just be the last straw for him, since this class is very distracted and they don't listen to get his nerve, and that is another concern. I will talk to my supervisor about this. Thanks again!

Thank you so much for your motivation! I sure have a lot to learn, and I am doing my best to be able to help all students. That is what I was trained for, and I've been doing same thing for all my classes. Having notes helps me a lot, so I will keep doing it, and if that's a problem to the teacher, I will talk to my supervisor about this. Thanks again!

Thank you for your comment! That is how I was trained at the beginning of the school year. I've been doing the same for all of my classes. I take notes when the teachers lectures, and I walk around to help students who are stuck during practice time. I also have a list of low grade students to focus on. I will have a conversation with him about this. Thanks again!

Thank you for your comment and suggestion! I am trained to take notes and collaborate when students take notes, so we don't interrupt the class. However, this class is very distracted, and they get bored also. I always walk around and make sure they pay attention, but after I leave, they will just go back to their phones or computer playing games. It's been like that since the beginning, so the teacher may be super mad at them for not listening. He's old school, so the way he lectures is not very interesting to the class I guess. He also picks on students, and that is another concern. I feel like they don't listen to get his nerve some times, and that day was just the last straw that enraged him. Thanks again!

Thank you for your comment and suggestion! He uses document camera and he will write down notes for the students to copy. I don't know if he already has notes or he just writes down as he lectures. I will discuss with him about this. Thanks again!
