School-age children spend most of their time at and in the classroom. This setting may be one of the most difficult places for children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) because it requires children to engage in behaviors that go against the core symptoms of ADHD (Kos, Richdale, & Jackson, 2006). ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is defined by impairing levels of inattention, disorganization, and hyperactivity-impulsivity (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). ADHD affects a wide range of children with about 4% to 7% being formally diagnosed, usually during early childhood (American Psychiatric Association, 2000).

Students with ADHD often struggle with focus and attention. This can manifest in difficulty following instructions, staying on task, completing assignments, and controlling impulsive behaviors.

Effective communication and partnership with parents are critical. Regular updates, shared resources, and collaborative problem-solving can enhance consistency and effectiveness in addressing the needs of students with ADHD.

Differentiated instruction and learning styles are crucial. Tailoring instruction to accommodate different learning styles and preferences is essential for supporting students with ADHD.

Clear, concise instructions and task simplification are essential. Breaking down complex tasks into manageable steps can help students with ADHD better understand expectations and complete assignments.

Students with ADHD may benefit from interactive and hands-on learning activities. Activities involving movement, sensory experiences, and practical applications can help maintain interest and focus.

1st solution:

Students with ADHD have a small amount of focus time usually only 15-20 minutes. Teachers need to use that time in a manner to best supports the academic growth of the student. All students have different learning styles and it was stated in both the literature and interviews that the teacher needs teach to the different styles of learning.

2nd solution:

It is recommended that teachers play to student strengths, tailor some of the instruction to bring focus to the student with ADHD, and encourage interest in areas where they can shine among their peers.

3rd solution:

Students with ADHD have a window of 15 to 20 minutes of focus time so it is vital to break the student’s day down into sections to allow a student the opportunity for success. One strategy is to place a student on an individual behavior plan and break down the student’s day into periods, such as, before recess, after recess, after lunch, and so on.

4th solution:

A teacher needs to plan on checking in with the child at the end of each time period, providing feedback on behavior within the time period. A key component to make this plan work will be important to have the family as a support system. Having the family engaged in the process is a key factor in ensuring the child’s success in school. Not having the family involved makes the process more of a struggle for the student.

5th solution:

Teachers need to re-evaluate each day and make modifications to adapt approaches when needed. There are going to be times when the student with ADHD is not present mentally in the classroom, and the teacher needs to step back and understand that there will be time to revisit the lesson.

Solving classroom management issues for students with ADHD is crucial for several reasons. Effective classroom management provides structure and support, enabling students with ADHD to better engage in learning, complete assignments, and reach their full potential. This, in turn, boosts their self-esteem and confidence, fostering a positive sense of self-efficacy. Moreover, addressing the needs of students with ADHD creates a more conducive learning environment for all students by reducing distractions and fostering a more structured setting. This ultimately leads to improved learning outcomes for everyone in the classroom and reduces teacher stress.

My thoughts and reflection on making this activity with the utilization of Padlet

# data[].attributes.body
I had more fun and a little bit of challenge in using this app. At first, I thought it was hard to do since I had no idea what Padlet was and how to use it. But when I started to click on buttons and discover the app on my own, I felt more confident and safe to use it.

To be honest, I did this activity on Friday, October 4 at 11:36 in the morning. I need to finish the activity ASAP since the mentioned app said that they will be having maintenance in the evening that's why I did it before attending my 1PM film class.
