[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with many others commenting in that I'm not hearing any significant concerns, and his behaviors sound developmentally appropriate.

That's a lot of responsibility for a 2nd grader.

I didn't read (every) comment but you could attach a lanyard or stretchy lanyard with the library card in it.

Visual calendars are super helpful for young children and perhaps you could even use velcro to put in the car with a picture of the backpack with "backpack" "water bottle", ect.  so he can see it as he's getting out of the car or see it at the door, leaving the house.

I just downloaded an app for my 10 year old in 5th grade called, 'the brili app' -the family app, which is designed for children with ADHD.

I also have a 7-year-old with ADHD who just started 2nd grade, but I don't feel like he's ready for something like that.  We are working on putting up our visual calendars to support him and are walking him through our new family routine with each step and supporting him and teaching him HOW to do each task (it will take multiple times to for them to learn and remember it) before we ask him to remember new tasks on his own.

oh and I meant attach the lanyard to the inside of his backpack, which reduces the chance he will lose it.  My 2nd grader would 100% lose it without that. [/quote]
