Teachers, can you recommend a good book on teaching children that get distracted easily?

    I love Whole Brain Teaching. They have some in class videos and you can pick and choose what works and what doesn't. Love getting a whole auditorium quiet in 10 seconds.lol

    I am a music teacher, so it is a little different..I have more movement and I have different kids all day.

  • Acutally Cho, this is for a music student!!!! lol

  • LOL!! Yay music teacher!

    Lots of modeling..also, throwing a stand across the room really gets their attention. Joking..kinda. 
  • How to Reach and Teach Children with ADD/ADHD is a good one because it's practical.  Lots of good ideas!  You may also want to talk to the special ed teacher at your school. They're full of great ideas!

    <div>Too bad they usually schedule the aid's lunch or prep during music/"fun" time. I hate that. I usually do a little bribing and ask them to stay for the first 10 minutes of set up, do nows, and getting their instruments. </div><div>

  • Ok thanks ladies, I will check it out.  I have a couple "wild" ones that I teach private 30 minute lessons to.  They are male 10.
