The successful school for ADHD

A successful school year starts from the first day of September. Try to add something to the progress of your child by talking to him/her about his/her targets, and the actions that will be taken during the new school year. Talk to the school educators, talk to a specialist and good luck!

Here you will find 9 basictipsfora successful school year:

1. Sum up the previous school year and the targets for the new school year (what went well, what could go better, how this can be achieved)
2. Visit and walk through the school and the new classroom (in this way your child will be less anxious)
3. Create a quiet and bright place for study, with a steady chair, with no objects or toys around that will attract the child’s attention
4. Buy objects that will help your child organize his/her school life and the study at home (folders, stickers, clock…)
