Teaching techniques that help students with attention deficit disorder Acknowledge the ADHD child. Do not get irritated. Restate the main point of the lesson. Make your questions simple for such children. Help the students with hints to answer your questions. Encourage them instead of humiliating them. Make your lessons simple and add variety of activities. Allow movement whenever possible in the class. Give one instruction at a time. Plan short task with opportunities for multi-sensory involvement.

Avoid spelling errors of such children wherever possible. Prepare special question paper with more choice. Use multi-sensory teaching methods. Allow the use of computers in class for such children instead of notebooks . Parents – teachers communication is required. Encourage the parent to get an assessment from child development centre and explain them that CBSE has permitted a set of concessions for these children at 10th and 12th class level. Encourage the parents to understand the child. Encourage the child to pursue other activities and hobbies such as sports, art , music etc.

Classroom Management Strategies for ADHD and SLD Let the child sit close to you. Avoid putting him under pressure of time and competition. Be aware of the possibility of the child using avoidance techniques. Give reasons for errors and ways to overcoming them instead of negative reinforcement. Always read the instruction aloud for such children. Try to overlook spelling errors if possible and grade work on content and not on spellings . Encourage the child to ask for help when he gets stuck. Give more practice to the child than to the normal child. Try including positive comments on his work- this will encourage such children. Give tasks well matched to the ability of a child. Simplify instruction task and assignment. Encourage peer tutoring and cooperative learning.

Parents Role Discuss child’s activity with the teacher and give immediate and frequent feedback . Help your child in home assignments. Actively monitor the behavior of the child. Help child to categorize his school material like books, notebooks, colors, pencils eraser etc. and ask him to arrange properly in his backpack. Help your child in planning daily schedule at home.
