Educating Children with AD/HD: A Teacher's Manual


Add your own review!

Overview

It is estimated that between 3 per cent and 5 per cent of pupils in the UK have Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD). Due to the disruptive nature of the disorder, AD/HD in just one child can affect an entire class. Including children with AD/HD without adversely affecting other pupils is very challenging, and teaching AD/HD children can sometimes seem impossible. This is comprehensive guide to including and educating children with AD/HD. Chapters cover: the nature of AD/HD; why children with AD/HD find schooling difficult; making the classroom work - techniques and practical guides for use in the classroom; making the curriculum work; social skills, discipline and behaviour management; helping children understand AD/HD; and teachers and doctors working together. The guide is a whole-school resource and includes photocopiable sections and case study material.

Reviews

'The supportive way the book is written is likely to lead to a change in perception, by promoting adult understanding that many of the exhibited behaviours although irritating are unintentional. A book that would be of benefit to all those involved with pupils who display AD/HD' - Special Needs Information Press 'A treat to see this book finally in print. Along with explanations into why our children behave differently and learn differently from others, they give wonderful advice on how to help and get the best of our children. A simply must-have book for all schools.' - Caroline Hensby
