Today, I again put on my teacher hat as we discuss ADHD accommodations in public schools for children. It's important for parents to understand how public schools typically make accommodations for ADHD students. In public schools, these accommodations are known as 504 plans, which are designed to offer support for ADHD students.
Some typical accommodations include:
1. Presentation & Organizational accommodations may involve highlighted text, audiobooks, pre-made outlines, and visual schedules.
2. Response accommodations can change how students complete classroom work - such as verbal testing or using technology for assignments.
3. Environmental accommodations can include changes to the classroom setting, such as quieter testing environments or the use of fidget toys.
4. Timing accommodations allow for more time on tests or additional rest breaks to support ADHD students throughout the day.
It's crucial for parents to advocate for their child's needs in school. Remember, having ADHD does not mean your child won't succeed in life. With the right support and accommodations, they can thrive academically! Stay tuned next week as I break down some accommodations for different age levels on 5-Minute Parenting podcast. #ADHD #504Plan #accommodations
