Getting The Most Out Of Summer School
Summertime and vacation breaks from school are excellent opportunities to target the behaviors associated with your child's ADHD. Although most are thrilled with the idea of a break from teachers, tutors, and doctors - it is important to remember that these learning challanges need to consistantly be addressed.Our Expert Tip:
Establish and maintain routine during the summer months. Prepare your child for next school year with “summer school” at home. Set up a summer workstation where your child will spend a fixed amount of time daily working on educational tasks before beginning a day of summer fun. Alternate difficult tasks with easier ones to manage your child’s frustration. Use summer reading, workbooks or other educational materials to encourage a daily work ethic, while rotating in fun experiments and projects. The school routine will be less of a shock if your child has “practiced” expected school behavior and work habits all summer long.
