Review :
"Another powerful resource by Flick, filled with a wealth of up-to-date and research-based information about ADHD, effective strategies and interventions for managing the disorder, and expert guidance to enable students with ADHD to achieve success." -- Sandra Rief, Educational Consultant "I found Flick's methods on removing inappropriate behaviors an invaluable tool that I used in my classroom management plan during my student teaching experience. The performance of my eighth-grade students with an ADHD IEP plan showed a marked improvement when I used the behavioral interventions. New teachers, as well as veteran teachers, will benefit from Flick's behavioral interventions; most importantly, student performance will be improved." -- Edwin Thompson, English Language Arts Teacher "Flick has once again given teachers the tools they need to be master behavioral technologists in the classroom. Every teacher in every classroom could benefit by reading this book. Those who teach particularly challenging children will benefit the most. By following Flick's practical recommendations, teachers will be able to systematically employ behavioral strategies to effectively improve classroom behavior and attention, increase academic performance, and positively impact the self-esteem of students in their class." -- Harvey C. Parker, Clinical Psychologist
