I have a 9 yr-old son who has been diagnosed with both ADHD and Cognitive Language disabilities. He is very intelligent, but he's having serious difficulties in school this year. One of his problem areas involves working independantly; he is unable to concentrate at all with any kind of outside distractions. He tries to focus and tune out to the point of giving himself headaches.
Has anyone found any tools that might be helpful? I am thinking about trying noise-canceling headphones, but I don't know if they actually do work.
Joseph's teacher is willing to try any viable options to help him, and any advice would be much appreciated!
