ADHD and School interventions
School interventions should include a team approach across multiple settings, consisting of both
preventive and intervention strategies.
Interventions must be based upon assessment data that includes information about the student’s strengths and needs as well as the environmental conditions in which her characteristics of ADHD occur.
Progress monitoring and strategy adjustments are critical to the success of any intervention plan (Wolraich & DuPaul, 2010).

Number of Directions: Give a minimal number of directions or steps at a time.
If necessary, have students repeat the directions to the teacher or a peer partner.
Form of Directions: Provide written directions or steps, or a visual model of a
completed project. Teach students how to refer to these items as reminders of
process steps to complete tasks. This strategy is particularly helpful for long-term
projects.
Written Assignments
Many students with ADHD have particular challenges with written work due to finemotor
skills difficulties, motor planning issues, and difficulty alternating their attention
from a book to their written responses.
Students with ADHD may also need assistance breaking a larger task or project into smaller, more workable units.

When teachers connect with students and appreciate their unique skills and interests, students are more likely to strive for achievement and positively respond to classroom rules and procedures.
When using a proactive approach to classroom management, teachers support all students and
create conditions that prepare them for learning (Piffner, 2011).

Interventions must be based upon assessment data that includes information about the student’s strengths and needs as well as the environmental conditions in which her characteristics of ADHD occur.
Progress monitoring and strategy adjustments are critical to the success of any intervention plan (Wolraich & DuPaul, 2010).
The first step in creating classroom supports for students with ADHD is understanding the
students’ strengths and needs. This involves formal and informal assessment, as well as
collaboration among educational professionals and the students’ families.
If a student is not responsive to behavioral strategies and interventions, more intensive interventions, such as functional behavior assessment and behavior intervention plans, should be considered (see Practical FBA).
No one intervention is universally effective for all students with ADHD. A combination of research-based and promising practices is recommended.
Here are several of these practices:

ADHD Misconceptions
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/10/161013103134.htm
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a very common condition diagnosed mainly in children.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 6.4 million children between four and 17 years of age have been diagnosed with ADHD as of 2011.
This primer is designed to help you understand ADHD at a deeper level and combat misconceptions.
Fact: An ADHD diagnosis requires observations of numerous symptoms in multiple settings and evidence of significant impairment.
Children are inherently energetic, sometimes even rowdy. If unruly behavior is the only symptom, then it’s difficult for a professional to say that their problem is truly a mental illness.
“ADHD is a real mental disorder. There are a myriad of reasons why children are inattentive, such as anxiety or inadequate sleep, but a child with attention-deficit disorder (ADD) or ADHD does have a condition. Diagnosis will require observations of numerous symptoms in multiple settings and evidence of significant impairment.” - Joshua Cabrera, MD, clinical psychiatrist and assistant professor at the Texas A&M College of Medicine.
The main symptoms of ADHD are inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity.
These can manifest in different ways: persistent fidgeting, being easily distracted or forgetful and difficulty waiting for a turn.

Organizational Supports for ADHD Students
Primer text from the College of William & Mary.https://education.wm.edu/centers/ttac/documents/packets/adhd.pdfMany students with ADHD have significant difficulties with organization.
They are more likely to respond positively when teachers establish class routines and set procedures and maintain a well-organized learning environment. Clear rules and advanced planning are keys to success for teachers of students with ADHD.The following organizational supports are particularly useful. Students should be taught to use these tools through teacher modeling and guided practice with feedback before being expected to use them more independently.Assignment Notebook: Provide the student with an assignment notebook to helporganize homework and seatwork.Color-Coded Folders: Provide the student with color-coded folders to helporganize assignments for different academic subjects.Homework Partners: Assign the student a partner who can help record

My Class Size Exceeds the Zoom License Limits – What Now?
ADHD is a problem with attention, so adult ADHD can make it hard to succeed in today’s fast-paced, hustle-bustle world. Many people find that distractibility can lead to a history of career under-performance, especially in noisy or busy offices. If you have adult ADHD, you might find that phone calls or email derail your attention, making it hard for you to finish tasks.

Many people without ADHD have marital problems, so a troubled marriage shouldn’t necessarily be seen as a red flag for adult ADHD. But there are some marriage problems that are likely to affect the relationships of those with ADHD. Often, the partners of people with undiagnosed ADHD take poor listening skills and an inability to honor commitments as a sign that their partner doesn’t care. If you’re the person with ADHD, you may not understand why your partner is upset, and you may feel you’re being nagged or blamed for something that’s not your fault 557

ADHD is not caused by bad parenting - ADDED
Causes for mental disorders are very difficult to pinpoint, but the general consensus is that they are products of the interaction of genetics with the environment. Certain people who have genes that influence how the brain processes dopamine may be at increased risk for ADHD, but having the genes doesn’t necessarily mean a person will show signs of the condition. There are a number of things that parents can do or not do that alter a child’s development—and their chances of having ADHD.
