  • Signs of Adult ADHD
      Verbal Redirection: Many students with ADHD require frequent redirection.Redirect students using clear, concise, and inconspicuously delivered verbal cuesto remind students of desired behaviors, rather than long explanations. Corrective Feedback: Some students with ADHD require brief, simplecorrection for disruptive behaviors. Correction should be directed at the student’sbehavior, not the student (e.g., “No shout-outs. Please raise your hand beforeanswering the question” vs. “stop being disruptive!”). Provide the feedbackimmediately following the behavior. Provide correction in a calm manner and inclose proximity to the student (Piffner, 2011). Avoid humiliating the studentwhen correcting his behavior. Options for Students: When providing corrective feedback or redirecting thestudent, it is often helpful to provide the student with options. For example, “Sue,you can do the assignment now, during lunch, or after school.”

  • Number of Directions: Give a minimal number of directions or steps at a time. If necessary, have students repeat the directions to the teacher or a peer partner. Form of Directions: Provide written directions or steps, or a visual model of a completed project. Teach students how to refer to these items as reminders of process steps to complete tasks. This strategy is particularly helpful for long-term projects. Written Assignments Many students with ADHD have particular challenges with written work due to finemotor skills difficulties, motor planning issues, and difficulty alternating their attention from a book to their written responses
