Edge Foundation

Friday, August 1st, 2008

Some time ago, I let my subscribers in on a great new website that offers all kinds of resources for Attention Deficit Disorder. Now I’d like to tell you, too.

The Edge Foundation is dedicated to helping students with ADHD succeed in school (kind of like me). They also offer coaching for ADD students. (Hey, I do that, too.)

Salvaging Grades

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

It won’t be long before the first half of the school year is over, and that means that the push is on to bring the grades up to an acceptable level. Hopefully you and your AD/HD child have been practicing good habits all year long - managing time well, staying organized, and studying hard.

ADHD and School

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

I haven’t posted here in too long of a time; my life has been like a runaway train lately, with someone else at the wheel.

I thought I would take a minute tonight to post something quickly, and share some of what we talked about at my teleclass last night.

AD/HD and Elementary School

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

Last week I did a radio interview with Christina Lemmey from Wonder Years Radio. Christina’s site is all about parenting children of elementary school age, and she covers all kinds of topics, from PTA fundraisers to transitioning to kindergarten. Christina had some questions for me about Attention Deficit Disorder in kids aged 5-11, especially as it affects school. Head on over to her site when you get a chance, and listen in.
