BUY THIS BOOK FOR YOUR CHILD'S TEACHER! (5 stars)
This book talks to teachers. As a special educator with ADHD children of my own, Chris Dendy zeros in on understanding this neuro-biological difference. She writes in a clear and concise manner. This book is loaded with hands-on materials, excellent up-to-date information, and strategies to teach the compensatory skills to these students. Buy this book for your child's teacher and send one to the director of special services,too.
It's not just for teens... (5 stars)
I'm 59 years old and have recently been diagnosed with ADD. I'm going back to college and requesting Section 504 accommodations. This book is so helpful. It has so much information and just plain great advice. Any one who has ADD and wants to know more about how they learn and what can help them learn more easily will benefit from this book.
Book arranged very helpfully (5 stars)
The author arranges content in a fashion that makes it quick/easy to find what you are looking for. Often we who deal with ADD teens are looking for material because the latest crisis has us pulling out our hair. This book is arranged so you can quickly find your dilemma addressed clearly. The book is reassuring to parents and teachers as one immediately recognized one's child described in detail. We are not the only one and it will be ok!! High school is NOT the way the rest of the work world operates, they WILL find their niche in life. The best part is the strategy page that accompanies each area of difficulty i.e., strategies for dealing with forgetfulness, for their total lack of time sense (tardy, poor long term planning, etc). The second best part is the section on neurotransmitters, MRI scan results and genes linked to ADD. In other words, ADD is real and our children are not lazy or character flawed. They are trying to cope as best they can but have one hand tied behind their back. The book helps us help them, and teach them to help themselves.
