Thesis

An Early Childhood Educator can help a student with ADHD by doing three simple things. They can help make the classroom an easier learning environment, they can assist in keeping the student on track and of course by ensuring they have the best learning environment possible.
My three points
1. Helping make the classroom an easier learning environment.
2. Ensure the child has the tools they need to learn
3. The need for an ECE in working with students with developmental delays or disabilities
These are the 4 resources that I have read and plan to use in my resource paper

How Can Teachers Help Students With ADHD?. [online] Available at: http://www.educationworld.com/a_issues/issues148c.shtml [Accessed 28 Oct. 2015]. I am using this resource because it gave me great ideas of how an ECE or teacher can help assist a child’s learning if he/she suffers from any disability such as ADHD. Which helps me prove point number one and two.

Third resource
Rief, S. (2005). How to reach and teach children with ADD/ADHD. San Francisco, Calif.: Jossey-Bass.
This resource is my book resource. I am hoping to use it again for point number one and two. I am using this because I feel like it is a good reference even though it is from 2005. It still has very valuable information.

Forth resource
Teaching children with ADHD. (2010). International Schools Journal, [online] 12(2), p.37. Available at: http://go.galegroup.com.dproxy.library.dc-uoit.ca/ps/i.do?p=AONE&u=ko_acd_dc&id=GALE|A368580009&v=2.1&it=r&sid=summon&userGroup=ko_acd_dc&authCount=1 [Accessed 28 Oct. 2015].
I am hoping to use this journal reference to get some extra facts on teaching children with ADHD and also to gather more information about the disorder. This will be a good resource because it has been just over five years since it was published therefor it has very valuable

    Many teachers do not understand how to support students with ADHD. According to Smith (2012), “Approximately three to five percent of all children in the US currently suffer from ADHD which translate in real terms into 2 million children” (How to teach ADHD child-effective teaching techniques for ADHD students). Strategies to assist teachers in improving children’s written expression could include written instructions to the parents, organizers to provide visual aids, and “post-it” notes to create ideas for essay writing (Low, 2012). A personal strategy is to use head phones to prevent other noises from interrupting the child’s train of thought. Math educators can use peer tutoring, and the teacher can clarify problems to the pupil. To encourage self-confidence, the student can create his or her own examples, and discuss the answers (Low,…

Through evidenced based research the most common practices dealing with ADHD were school-based intervention, Therapeutic Conversation Intervention, and Mindfulness based therapy. This doesn’t mean that these are the only practices to be explored being that all children are different and the mind is so complex. These three can be viewed as a guide for a starting point. The main focus is to tackle the present day issues with the concern areas presented.…
