I've just got a job as a teaching assistant and will be helping a small group of kiddies with adhd catch up with reading and maths. I've never done anything like this before and I'm trying to learn as much as possible before I start in January.

I was told by the teacher that these particular children can be quite a handful and I am looking for ways to encourage them to concentrate on reading. Also if any of them are very naughty, what method of discipline works best, so not to make things worse?

I really want to do well in this job, so the more I learn, the more affective i'll be helping the little ones.

Thank You

Jayne :)
