Case: ADHD Student
This year in a class that I co- teach, we have a sweet young man who is extremely ADHD. At the beginning of the year, he was fairly diligent about completing assignments and turning in his work. This second half of the semester he is barely turning anything in. Also I have to constantly redirect his attention more than usual and literally stand over him to help him complete an assignment. The counselors and myself learned that he is no longer on his medication and there is no sight that he will be put back on it due to financial issues. Any suggestion on how to handle this situation would be greatly appreciated.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I agree that you should chunk assignments into smaller ones. Similarly, try including some type of physical activity into your assignments or possibly allowing this student to stand while working. |

Comments: Chunking assignments into smaller pieces can make them more manageable, I agree! |
