Tips to application

So many things make a lot of sense in this article. Personally, I don't have any idea what it might be like to suffer with ADHD. I have witnessed it in some of my friends, but that wasn't until college, so they had figured out a lot about what worked for them. It must be an incredibly frustrating experience for the child. It seems logical that they should be consulted as to what works for them. Yet, we as adults are still learning about ourselves. So how do we allow a child to participate in what they think might work for them, and also consider the advice and strategies that have been cited as working for others. I find it interesting that the first is ensuring that the diagnosis is correct. The second then is seeking support for yourself. It is somewhat like First Aid training, we need to make sure that we are healthy/well/safe before being able to care for others. This is a lesson that we all need, regardless of the type of students, to be effective teachers we need to care for ourselves so that we can put our best foot forward. Some of these tips are great for all types of learners. Okay, so what does some of this look like in the classroom. I like structure, I like knowing what's going to happen next, and I suppose that we prep for this as much as possible, but really experience is going to help us figure out how these tips actually are utilized in life.
