Understanding and Supporting Children with ADHD: Strategies for Teachers, Parents and Other Professionals by Lesley A Hughes
'In many ways this publication reads like a toolkit, and as such offers a range of practices that may be considered in order to improve outcomes for all. A readable and supportive book' - SNIP
Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can be hard to include in a mainstream classroom, and managing their behaviour is often a challenge.
Drawing directly from real classroom experience, this book shows how to use effective management strategies to improve behaviour in the classroom and at home.
This interdisciplinary approach will provide teachers with:
strategies to deal with disruptive behaviours
ways to channel children's positive characteristics
advice on how teachers can support and guide parents
behaviour management techniques to promote positive behaviour
advice on collaborative working, and how teachers can build partnerships with other professionals.
