Whether your child has been officially diagnosed with a learning disability or is just a struggling learner for whatever reason, this workshop offers realistic strategies to help.  These practical teaching tips will help all learners, and especially those who have learning challenges

Melinda and Scott Boring, married for 25+ years, team up for this lively presentation about distractibility issues for adults.  Melinda loves organizational aids, structure, and planning in advance.  Scott loves spontaneity, creativity, and procrastinating.  How did these two ever get together!?  Find out how this couple found strategies that work.  Includes question and answer time with attendees

Have you ever considered recording your voice so you wouldn’t have to keep saying the same things over and over? If you feel as though you are constantly redirecting your distractible child, it may be time to teach some strategies to promote selfmonitoring and greater independence. Find out how using a menu can help identify areas of distractibility, encourage your child to take responsibility for using strategies, and learn ways to tackle projects and get them done on time.

Does your child fidget, seem to be in constant motion, or frequently go off on
tangents? Maybe your child can sit still just fine but seems to be in his own little world rather than attending to the task at hand. Does a twenty-minute assignment take two hours at your house? Come and learn the best teaching tips for working with distractible children as well as ways to tweak the learning environment and develop your child’s awareness of time passing.

Whether you homeschool, are considering it, or just want to help your child after school, Homeschooling Your Struggling Learner helps you teach your child at home.  Kathy Kuhl homeschooled her struggling learner for 4th-12th grages.  After he graduated, she interviewed 64 homeschoolers with children with different learning problems, including autism, learning disabilbities, AD/HD, and other conditions.  She distills their wisdom while conveying her own experience and insights.

Autism? Aspergers? ADHD? ADD?
Diane Drake Burns
Suspect there’s something “different” about your child? This book will help you navigate those early stages of your child’s life when a diagnosis is nowhere in sight and you’re either totally frustrated or frightened into inaction by a vision of what may lie ahead. Written by a mother who knows–because she had an uncanny ability to avoid her son’s diagnosis–this book humorously and gently prods parents into action, beginning with the chapter “Was That the Exit to ‘Normal?” and “Rules of the Road,” to “Time to Take Off the Gloves” and “To School or Not to School.”

Finally, The ADHD-Autism Connection gives parents, educators, and doctors a reason to embrace autism with a renewed sense of hope and
understanding. This book will show how these understandings can minimize the frustration, misdiagnoses, and misunderstandings ADHD sufferers
and their families face.

Singer-songwriter Cathy Bollinger sparkles with thoroughly singable songs that gently address the needs of children who find social interaction
confusing or challenging. Using descriptive, social story-like phrases to talk about concrete situations, My Turn Your Turn sings children
through the tricky territory of engaging with others. Songs touch on empathy, asking for help, handling anger, and other daily social skills.
With music that makes lessons fun to learn, Bollinger, a trained music therapist, breaks common everyday interactions down into simpler and
more understandable activities.

Parents, teachers, and therapists love using these activities with their children.
The activities that Mary Sue Williams and Sherry Shellenberger present are “intended to enhance daily routines and provide sensorimotor
strategies for self-regulation (methods to change our levels of alertness through what we see, hear, feel, taste, smell,
and how we move).”
You’ll find suggested activities for alerting and calming that encourage children to move, touch, look, and listen. Materials are
easy to find or create, and the instructions are clear. Tips for adapting the activities and the authors’ observations while using the
activities with children of differing abilities are also included.

The Alert Program uses the analogy of an automobile engine to introduce its concept of self-regulation to students: “If your body is like a car engine, sometimes it runs on high, sometimes it runs on low and sometimes it runs just right.” Mary Sue William

Excitement mounts as your class or workshop participants race against the TimerTools stopwatch, attempting to break their prior record for a challenging task. It’s all possible with TimerTools. TimerTools is the Swiss
army knife for teachers and presenters: 13 essential tools in one! Whether you are presenting to a small class or a huge audience, TimerTools is your perfect solution for every presentation need: hourglass, analog clock, digital clock, alarm clock, multiple customizable alarms, seconds countdown timer, turn timer, interval timer, digital stopwatch, analog stopwatch, and split timer.

Help Students manage the amount of time they are out of your classroom with this unique timer.
• Same time kept on both the HALL PASS and the Teacher Monitor.
• HALL PASS and Teacher Monitor can be easily set with an allotted time
for student to be out of your classroom (2,3,4, or 5 minutes) or ongoing.
• Warning lights & ‘Time’s up’ alarms on both HALL PASS and Teacher Monitor.
• ‘Memory Time’ in Teacher Monitor records the time for the last three uses.
• HALL PASS has accompanying lanyard for ‘hands-free’ use.
• Easy to replace long-lasting AAA batteries.

The ORIGINAL TIME TIMER is an 8” timer with a red visual display. The display can be set for up to 60 minutes and the red disappears as time elapses. This is an excellent tool for children who do not know how to tell time yet, as well as for those children who do not have a natural internal sense of the passage of time. Using the Time Timer frees adults from the frustration of multiple and frequent verbal reminders to the child to continue working on assigned tasks by providing a constant visual reminder of the passage of time. It is also extremely useful in helping  children who have difficulty transitioning to new activities, since the children can tell at a glance how much time remains before a change in activity will occur. The size of the Time Timer makes the display easily visible from across a room, and can help older children develop better time management skills.
AUDIBLE ORIGINAL TIME TIMER has the option of an audible “Ding” when time has elapsed or completely silence.

Heads Up Helping!! In pdf format, read with Adobe reader.

Heads Up Helping is the story of a mother’s journey as she observes her son’s special learning challenges and responds with love and dedication. Drawing on her years of experience as a speech pathologist, Melinda begins her pursuit of educational methods and materials that will help her son achieve the potential she is convinced exists. With fierce determination, Melinda sought information to help her son Joshua both accept himself and find areas in which he could excel despite his attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), social difficulties, and sensory issues.
Over time, and with much experimentation, Melinda recognized which strategies, materials, and instructional approaches were most effective for her son and daughters. By becoming an astute observer and student herself, she gradually distinguished those techniques that worked most frequently out of the multitude of ideas she tried and those successes are shared in depth throughout her book.
Melinda offers practical strategies from both her personal and professional experience in helping children with auditory and visual distractibility, sensory issues, fidgeting and hyperactivity, daydreaming, and social communication difficulties. She offers teaching tips and information on how to effectively reach students in ways that are compatible with brain-based teaching techniques. The suggestions for modifying curriculum and adapting the learning environment are easily implemented and applied.
With heart-wrenching honesty and with humor, Melinda’s real-life examples reveal the trials and joys of teaching and parenting a child with challenges.

Earplugs by the dozen

These earplugs are made of pliable foam that can be rolled between the finger and thumb prior to insertion in the ear. Once in place, the earplugs slowly expand to comfortably fill the opening of the ear. They block out about 29 decibels of sound, which does not interfere with the ability
to hear conversational speech at a normal loudness level with a nearby speaker such as a teacher.   It does, however, block out some of the background noises that are so distracting for individuals who have difficulty screening out irrelevant sounds.
