[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son with ADHD said, “Extra time won’t help me if I don’t know the answer.” I think extra time should be for students with documented low processing speed. That doesn’t describe all kids with ADHD. [/quote] Extra time helps kids with slower processing and also anxiety - SOMETIMES. But don’t get me started on how anxiety has also now been twisted to try to get every accommodation under the sun including ones which absolutely negative reinforce anxious patterns. [/quote]extra time helps students because they have difficulty attending to tasks or have a of concentration or focus, too. It’s not just students who have a slow processing speed. [/quote]
