About this listen

Have you ever felt unsure about how to address ADHD-related behaviors in your classroom?

Keeping students with ADHD focused and engaged can be a daily struggle. From the fidgeter who can't seem to sit still to the daydreamer who frequently gets lost in their mind, it can feel like you are fighting a losing battle with the ongoing disruptions caused by ADHD.

Written by the well-established author and special education teacher, Richard Bass, A Teacher's Guide to Managing ADHD in the Classroom promises to deliver a roadmap for success that goes beyond generic advice. It is tailored to meet the academic and behavioral needs of students from kindergarten to high school and offers practical strategies, such as:

How to foster collaboration with parents and professionals and provide individualized support to students displaying concerning symptoms.

Self-regulation strategies to minimize classroom disruptions and encourage emotional recognition and expression.

Proven techniques for addressing executive function challenges, such as getting students organized, teaching time management skills, and empowering them to work independently.

Effective ADHD-friendly communication strategies that provide clear and actionable instructions and promote positive student-teacher relationships.

This book covers all aspects of enhancing the classroom experience, from redesigning lesson plans to making environmental modifications. You'll also find interactive group and individual activities at the end of each chapter that encourage reflection and collaboration with other teachers.

This is more than just a how-to manual—it’s a compassionate call to action. The advice on building self-regulation and supporting executive function is gold. Bass explains the “why” behind each method, which really helped deepen my understanding of ADHD behavior. I also loved the reflective activities—perfect for staff meetings or teacher development sessions.

This audiobook delivers excellent value for any teacher facing ADHD challenges in the classroom. However, I felt a few chapters lingered too long on familiar concepts before diving into new material. That said, the strengths far outweigh the minor pacing issues. The actionable advice, especially for executive function and behavior management, is top-tier and already helping my students succeed.

So many ADHD resources focus only on controlling behavior, but this book focuses on supporting growth and autonomy. The attention to executive functioning and emotional regulation was especially powerful. I appreciated how each chapter ended with actionable steps and reflection prompts. It’s not just a guide—it’s a blueprint for making lasting changes in how we teach.

There’s a lot to love here—the advice is practical, well-researched, and clearly presented. However, a couple of sections felt a bit repetitive, particularly around self-regulation themes. That said, it’s still among the top ADHD resources I’ve used and I’d recommend it to any teacher looking to better support neurodiverse learners.

I’ve listened to many professional development books, but few offered this much usable content. Bass doesn’t waste time with vague philosophies—he jumps straight into what works. The part about redesigning the classroom environment opened my eyes to small but powerful changes I could make, like seating arrangements and visual cues. This is professional development done right.
