Leslie A. Elementary Education-loves to make learning fun!
Both my son and husband have ADHD. I have been working in a public school for over 28 years and every year there is at least one child who displays ADHD characteristics, with or without the official diagnosis. I know they need lots of breaks, learn best by first having an educator identify their best learning modality and then use that modality during instruction. I also was one of the editors of a book about non-drug treatments for ADHD. Read more

I then started working for a federal grant that promoted college & career preparation cultures in low-in... Read more

I am currently working with a number of students with ADD/ADHD and have worked with quite a few students with this learning challenge in the classroom. I assess the strengths and areas of improvement for each student and prescribe work on their skill level. I also limit the amount of time needed for each assignment by decreasing the total number of problems, utilizing breaks from the work, varying assignments, and minimizing distractions. I also assess the student's best modality of learning and then prescribe work based on that assessment. I maintain a patient and reinforcing teaching Read more
