[QUOTE="JKF, post: 462027, member: 12470"] TeDo - He had an aide in the 3rd grade but they felt he didn't need one in the 4th grade which is total BS. He's now in 5th grade and things are only getting harder! He definitely needs someone to help him on a one on one basis. He has a planner which the teacher signs daily but a recorder sounds like a wonderful idea. Will have to give it a try! InsaneCdn - I have a feeling that it is an auditory issue. He gets distracted by any kind of noise or chaos and then that's it. He can't get back into what he was doing before he was distracted. I'm going to see if there is any way they can pull him out of certain classes he's having the most trouble with and work with him in a smaller, more quiet setting. Kiesta - His new bedtime is at 7. Lights out is at 8 pm. He has an hour to read before he goes to sleep. His old bedtime was 8 with lights out at 8:30. I think this new bedtime will work a little better because now he has an hour to unwind before he actually has to go to sleep. When I checked on him at 8:30 last night he was fast asleep. Usually I have to wake him (which takes forever!) but he woke up on his own this morning about 15 minutes before his alarm usually goes off. He's a really nice kid but the ADHD makes it impossible to deal with him sometimes. I just want to make sure he's getting all he can out of school and also make sure that the teachers understand that sometimes he just CAN'T concentrate no matter how hard he tries. [/QUOTE]
