Teacher to Teacher:
Classroom Interventions for the Student with ADHD
Sunday, November 14, 2010
Hyatt Regency Atlanta
Atlanta, GA
 Do you have students with ADHD in your classroom? Every
teacher does. Do you feel challenged to find the balance between the
needs of your class and helping the student with ADHD learn effectively?
You are not alone. If you are a parent
of a child with ADHD who is struggling in school, would you like to
learn about effective classroom interventions? Then Teacher to
Teacher is for you.
Join us for a day-long workshop that identifies common ADHD-related
learning problems plus practical classroom techniques, interventions,
and the latest research to enhance school success for students with
ADHD. Designed for mainstream classroom teachers, Teacher to
Teacher will provide best practice strategies in an interactive,
hands-on format. Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss
solutions to common academic and behavioral problems in a "case-based"
format. Each workshop is limited to 100 attendees, so don’t
wait to return your registration. Each attendee will also receive the
CHADD Educator’s Manual on ADHD: An In-Depth Look from
an Educational Perspective. This is "the" manual for
managing students with ADHD and a fantastic resource.
The Content
From theory to practice you will learn
evidence-based interventions to manage every aspect of AD/HD in the
classroom, including:
* Understanding ADHD
* Keys for Academic Success
* Organizational Deficits and ADHD
* Effective Behavioral, Emotional and Social
Interventions
* Real Life Challenges: Case Based Problem
Solving
* Designing ADHD-Friendly Classrooms
