Conductive Assistants

Since the new school year started, I have been working with three lovely ladies who come to my after school group from the local elementary school. There they work as aides in special education classrooms. Before the work began, we had a brief introductory meeting. Since then it has been on-the-job training for them. We have limited time together, really the only time we have is when we are together in the group.


I am looking for ways, advice, suggestions to improve our work together. How can I help them to understand our aims without overwhelming them? How can I help them to work more 'conductively'?


How do I train conductive assistants?
