▪ Follow-up directions. Effective teachers of children with ADHD also guide them with follow-up directions:
— Oral directions. After giving directions to the class as a whole, provide additional oral directions for a child with ADHD. For example, ask the child if he or she under- stood the directions and repeat the directions together.
— Written directions. Provide follow-up directions in writing. For example, write the page number for an assignment on the chalkboard and remind the child to look at the chalkboard if he or she forgets the assignment.
