[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On a side note - have you tried different ADHD medications for your daughter? There can be a lot of trial and error to finding the right one and the right dosage. And, when you find the right one, it can make a world of difference. For example, my child had trouble writing and doing homework after school. We switched medications this year, and amazingly, he is finally able to write without melting down and do his homework on his own (he never did that before). Also, did she say why she didn't want the school to know about here ADHD? Some accommodations that we have are: priority seating (near the front of the class), extra time on tests, time to get up to stretch. My child is younger so not all may apply to your child. We finally got an IEP so now we are getting specialized help for writing and organization.[/quote] I also meant to add that if you get an IEP, you can go in the resource class where they have special ed instructors who can help your daughter with executive functioning strategies and she'd also have a place to get her homework done/started earlier in the day so she is not so tired when she starts later at home.[/quote]
