The Importance of Recess for Children With ADHD

by Keath Low

This article explains that efforts to modify the behavior of children with ADHD will be more successful with prevention or positive rewards rather than cancelling recess privileges for behavior infractions. By working with the child’s teacher, parents can help improve the environment that leads to problematic behavior or even develop positive rewards for positive behaviors. Both help preserve recess, which is a necessary outlet for a child with ADHD. If recess must be used them limited allowed activities as opposed to the entire recess is preferred.

Students Aren’t Waiting to Improve Their World

by Suzie Boss

The article is about emphasizing the need for social programs to help today’s youth become tomorrow’s leaders of innovative ideas. It tackles how we can help today’s youth do this, for example by helping the youth realize the importance of innovation.

Is your child struggling in school?

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
