ADD- Attention Deficit Disorder

BY: Alex Willard

Treatment

How to Teach?

Every child will have to learn differently, and at their own pace. If they need it, take things slow, give the child one on one help. Let them ask questions, it may take longer for them to understand compared to the other kids in the class.

Resources

Medications for ADD may help your child concentrate better or sit still, at least in the short term. But to date, there is little evidence that they improve school achievement, relationships, or behavioral issues over the long term. And even in the short term, medication won’t solve all problems or completely eliminate the symptoms of ADD.
