  Attention: How it Impacts Learning and Ways to Help Your Child Improve (all ages)
  Wednesday, February 8
6:00 – 7:30 PM
 
When we ask our kids to "pay attention" or "focus" what exactly are we asking them to do? How do our expectations of children's attention match their individual personalities and learning styles? Learn how to understand the neurodevelopmental underpinnings of attention, identify your child’s   strengths and weaknesses within the area of attention, have a basic understanding of the defining criterion for ADHD and look for red flags in your children.   We will also discuss strategies and resources for home and school.
