[quote=Anonymous]Ugh. This type of instruction is terrible for all kids, not just ADHD! I think that you have to accept and triage. Accept that schools are making this catastrophically stupid choice. Then triage to make sure your kid learns what they need to. Because this isn’t only an issue of distraction but also that the underlying curriculum and teaching method is bad for all kids. So that means a couple of things: 1. You are going to have to get used to checking all the online portals regularly to make sure the work is getting done. 2. Proactively get math and writing tutoring. Don’t wait until 8th grade algebra when you realize your kid knows no math facts. We like Mathnasium. 3. Add to the IEP or 504 home-school communications so you can get more direct information about missing work or poorly completed work and redo it. I’m [/quote]
