ADD/ADHD Alternatives in the Classroom
by Thomas Armstrong
ASCD, 1999
ISBN: 0871203596
What does it mean to a kid to be labeled attention-deficit disordered (ADD)? Or to have "hyperactive" added to the label (ADHD)? What can teachers do to boost the success of students with attention and behavioral difficulties? Armstrong urges educators and parents to look for the positive characteristics in learners who may carry the ADD/ADHD label. Using imaginative journeys, bodily-kinesthetic cues, posters, drama and dances are just a few of the many strategies you'll learn for empowering kids labeled with ADD/ADHD.
Thomas Armstrong, an educator and psychologist from Sonoma County, California, has more than 26 years of teaching experience, from the primary through the doctoral level.
