Description
For children living with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), life can be frustrating. They may find it impossible to sit quietly, focus on a task, or work well with others; they often have difficulty mastering even basic skills. But there is more to ADD than deficits. Jeffrey Freed, who works exclusively with ADD and gifted children, has developed a simple, easy-to-apply program that works with the special abilities of the ADD child. Freed and coauthor Laurie Parsons explain how, in as little as ten minutes a day you can: test for a right-brained learning style; help your ADD child master spelling – and build confidence; tap your child’s speed-reading abilities; and win over teachers and principals to the right-brained approach the ADD child thrives on.
