[quote=urbannanny]Ask for help coming up with routine charts and consequences. Bring out colorful markers and let her write/draw a chart after you guys discuss what needs to happen during the day. Also set time aside for meetings. Listen to her concerns about the issues you are seeing then have her listen to yours. Together come up with some ways to prevent unwanted behavior and to change course when she slips. At home you can use the oven timer to signal when an activity is over. Allow her to set the timer and to turn it off. On of my best interventions was taking the kids to a school track and having them run races. We did relays so each person's goal was only to beat their own previous time. It was awesome because they had to cooperate. All you need is something to use as a baton.[/quote]
