Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Language can provide a web of organization to develop a plan, follow through on the plan, think about how well it worked, and make revisions.

New and challenging school assignments or work projects can be overwhelming for an individual with a limited attention span and high activity level. Language can provide a web of organization to develop a plan, follow through on the plan, think about how well it worked, and make revisions (Kennedy, Krause, & O’Brien, 2014). In my work consulting with organizations and providing workshops, I show parents and teachers how to help individuals organize and focus through communication strategies.
