    How to Encourage a Child's Brain Development
    Children’s brains develop rapidly from ages birth through three. Brain development affects all areas of a child’s growth.

    There are four main areas of development: motor (physical), language and communication, social and emotional, and cognitive. Brain development is part of cognitive development. Cognitive development describes how a child’s intellect grows, and includes thinking, learning and problem-solving skills. These skills affect all other areas of development.

    The first three years of a child’s life are critical for learning and development. Many parents ask how they can help their child’s brain develop. The best way is to actively engage your child through everyday activities like playing, reading and being there when he/she feels stress.

    Partner Reading
    Self-Correction Opportunities
    Students use calculators or a key provided by the teacher to check their answers.

    Learning Games
    Students play board games that reinforce skills such as sight vocabulary, phonics, grammar rules, and basic math facts.

    For example, Bingo can be used to review basic facts and concepts. Students who require more immediate feedback and recognition of their efforts might begin with a Bingo board that has only
    three cells across and three cells down. The number of cells can be gradually increased to four across, four down, then five, and so forth.

    Assignment Notebook
    Many students with ADHD have significant difficulties with organization.

    They are more likely to respond positively when teachers establish class routines and set procedures and maintain a well-organized learning environment.

    Clear rules and advanced planning are keys to success for teachers of students with ADHD.


    The following organizational supports are particularly useful. Students should be taught to use these tools through teacher modeling and guided practice with feedback before being expected to use them more independently.
