From the Paper:

"There is no easy solution for the management of ADHD in classroom, or at home for that matter. Here are a few tips or recommendations on school management of the child with ADHD. First of all, make sure what you are dealing with really is ADHD. Specifically, make sure someone has tested the child's hearing and vision recently and make sure other medical problems have been ruled out. Ask the child what will help them. Children can tell you how they can learn best if you ask them. Pay attention to the emotions involved in the learning process. Post rules in the classroom. Repeat directions. People with ADHD need to hear things more than once. Seat the ADHD child near your desk. Teach the children little tricks like mnemonics and flashcards to help them memorize new stuff. Finally, simplify instructions, choices, and scheduling. The simpler the task the more likely it will be comprehended."
