Ep 89. What School Accommodations Help ADHD?

09/17/24 • 20 min

Finding the right accommodations for students with ADHD can be complicated! There is no "one size fits all" and some accommodations for ADHD might actually make it more difficult for a student to learn!
In this episode of ADHD Crash Course, we'll talk about the difference between IEPs and 504s and discuss some common (and less common) accommodations that help support neurodivergent learners in the classroom.

Ep 88. You're Not Failing, You're Spiral Learning!

The journey of learning to work with our brains isn't typically linear! We often learn in a "spiral" pattern; introduced to strategies and then moving on to other tools before we've mastered these. Later, we revisit what we've learned and deepen our knowledge and experience.

The process spiral learning can leave us doubting our progress (or even feeling like we're "failing") since we are working on several different areas gradually, but eventually we reinforce these skills and see big changes!

Ep 90. Help for When You Don't Follow Through

We all do it. We planned to do something, believed we would and then we drop the ball. For whatever reasons, something we 100 % planned to do didn't happen.
When we don't follow through with the things that matter to us, we may have our own "stories" about why. The problem with these stories is that they are often harsh. judgmental, and leave no room for actual problem solving!
Approaching our failures with curiosity and openness allows us to find solutions that work for our brains. We can "flop" artfully when we take a moment to analyze how it happened and what we need for a different result. On today's episode of ADHD Crash Course, we'll discover practical ways we can do that!
