Summary: very helpful for me as a high schooler with ADD
Review: As a school psychologist, I am always searching for excellent materials to share with students, parents and teachers. Help4ADD@High School addresses this important need. The font is easy to read and the format is organized and clear so that students with learning and attentional problems are engaged immediately. Issues relating to study skills, homework, social problems and medication are discussed so that students understand how to self advocate and make intelligent choices for the future. I strongly recommend this book for students, teachers, psychologists, educational therapists, administrators, and parents.

Summary: Teachers! Take note!
Review: For its format alone, this is a must-buy for teachers and the administrators who work with them! As a middle school AP, I've visited far too many classrooms where teachers try to keep students' attention nailed to dreary handwritten overheads in black marker no less. Yawn. Every page of this book demonstrates what good overheads should look like (minus the color I'd like to see)while the text explains WHY this is imperative for ADHD students. GET IT! I love it. I ordered two more for my school.

Summary: very helpful for me as a high schooler with ADD
Review: I recently read Help for ADD at High School by Kathleen Nadeau. There were many pieces of advice that were new to me and other things that my parents and tutors had taught me before. The advice that I had heard before, I have used during my years in high school. These simple tips are how I survived and passed every single one of my classes. I could tell that when Dr. Nadeau wrote this book, she understood the people who would be reading it. Usually when I read information books, I get bored and distracted easily. This probably has alot to do with my ADD. Dr. Nadeau remembered that the reader of this book, like myself, probably has ADD. In writing the book, she made a special effort to make sure I didn't loose interest. The content of the book helps students to understand their obstacles and teaches them how to overcome them. I would recomend this book to any high schooler who has ADD, it will truly help you through your difficulties.

Summary: I liked how the number was in the title
Review: When I saw this book, I liked that there was a number in the title and the @ thing too. But when I was reading it, most of the words weren't numbers. Some of the pages were pictures and I liked those ones the best. I think that if you wanted this book, you should get it. As someone who had a hard time in high school, making friends etc., I found this was a good way to think back on it all. I'm not sad anymore because of them.
