Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

I am a elementary education major at Messiah College. I am beginning to write a paper on how to teach students with ADHD to read. I am focusing on after reading strategies. Such as: story mapping, storyboards, and cloze activites. I have found some information, but not enough. Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need more articles! your help would be greatly appreciated and would benifit many students who suffer from ADHD and often never are successful at reading because teachers don’t know the best strategies for teaching them.

PASSWORD>aaxY4z.xdLnUgDana, if you’re still working on this (doubtful since the semester is over)or interested in this subject, you should contact the Orton Gillingham people or the International(?)Reading Association for information about multisensory reading programs. Children diagnosed with ADHD/ADD often have reading problems that respond to the same kinds of practices that help LD children. I use Project Read but several good ones exist. I also liked to use word walls even at the middle school level because it got the kids out of their seats and thinking. All of them liked to use the overhead projector. Hope you were successful in that class.: I am a elementary education major at Messiah College. I am beginning

I just completed graduate school….and would NEVER have made it without elibrary..
