When a troubled student needs help during class, first look around the room to see if you need assistance to manage the crisis.

“We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.” ~ Charles R. Swindoll

A happy life does not mean that you will not experience pain and hardship along the way.

Elementary students should not be taking standardized tests. Because testing becomes the focus of education instead of learning. We take away the fun and excitement of learning, playing, exploring, & creating. We create test takers instead of problem solvers and innovators.

Very interesting!! Never would of thought about this!

The stark reality is that the majority of women & girls with ADHD are missed because they don’t fit the stereotypical gender biased stigmatising myths about this condition. ADHD impacts on physical & mental health - eating disorders, obesity, anxiety & depression.

[Neurodiversity Training UK @NeurodiversityT]

ADHD is not a behavioural disorder - why we need a public health campaign & better teacher training to ensure children are not harmed or fail in education because of ensuring myths & stigma. ADHD affects 1 in 20. Isn’t it time we did something about it?
