Creating a classroom culture that fosters independent, motivated, and resilient learners is the ultimate goal of the classroom teacher.  This goal can be difficult to achieve when organizational and attentional challenges impede learning.
Students with those challenges need explicit instruction in skills that come easily to others.  Students who are taught strategies for effective learning, and are taught how these strategies work and why they are necessary, will be empowered to apply them to every area of their lives.

This one-day workshop will define common terminology about executive dysfunction and ADHD.  You will receive tools that can scaffold learning for your students, and how to establish a classroom-wide culture that fosters habits leading to success for every student.
