Students with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder or other learning disabilities usually remain in “regular” classes, which can make “classroom management” (keeping order) a challenge at times. Internationally renowned ADHD author/educator Sandra Rief presents a host of strategies to help teachers bring out the best in all students in this program that is divided into four sections dealing with instructional strategies, classroom management, academic accommodations, and collaboration for success. Emphasizing the importance of multi-sensory instruction (auditory, visual, tactile/kinesthetic), these techniques not only help students with ADHD but can be of great benefit to the general student populace as well. Techniques are demonstrated in actual elementary and middle school classrooms, and while one or two suggestions are clunkers, there are more than enough great ideas here to offset them. An essential purchase for both academic collections and school districts, this is also highly recommended for larger public libraries. Aud: E, I, J, P. (R. Reagan)
