Recenzii
If you are a parent looking for straight-forward solutions to help your disorganized child, this incredibly user-friendly resource is the guidebook you've been seeking. Whether you're tackling issues at home, at school or in the community, Forgan and Richey organize Executive Function challenges so clearly that you can easily target one problem at a time for kids age 4-12—and take immediate action. The “Suggestions for the Teacher” in each chapter are a terrific bonus to copy and share with each year's new school team.,Elaine Taylor-Klaus, CPCC, PCC,ImpactADHD, 3/23/15
If you have a student, or know a parent who has a child with Executive Function Difficulties, I would highly suggest this book. The authors James Forgan, Ph.D., and Mary Anne Richey have organized this book perfectly. Each chapter is broken down into a short self-reflection survey, details and research about the aspect they are explaining, how to help your child at home, school, in the community, and how to use their strengths and technology. They also have a short list of books that would be good to read with your child that they can relate to, along with suggestions for the classroom teacher. They also include some ideas of apps, and websites that will help your child in various ways.,Jeffrey Shoemaker, Gifted Intervention Specialist, 4/15/15
I was impressed by the level of research that went into this book. Neuroscience has come a long way in the past several decades. If you are the parent of an impulsive, disorganized child as I was, you will find solace and strategies for coping with your child's behavior.,Lisa Conrad, Gifted Education Advocate, 3/29/15
