I am a High School English teacher to adult felons in jail that usually have with ADHD, social/emotional disorders, general anxiety disorder, PTSD, and other learning disabilities. I am the mom to a 9 year old boy with ADHD and I have ADHD as well. This blog is a place for me to describe my teaching style, vent about the difficulties surrounding ADHD, and explain some of the common issues I face as a teacher and parent.

Important Info!!
Extra extra, read all about it!!
Not one of my students understands how to write a thank you note!! I AM SHOCKED- well, not really. This is an art form that is becoming a lost art. They didn't know why they had to do it, how to format it, what to include or - WAIT FOR IT - HOW TO ADDRESS THE ENVELOPE!!!!
I know...I know...I am shocked too! When did addressing an envelope become obsolete?? When did the art of crafting an interesting and yet necessary part of etiquette stopped being important?
(**Psss- I HATE writing thank you notes but I do it because I was always had to. I am more shocked about not being able to address a freaking envelope!! Seriously...I am shaking my head)
