More children are being misdiagnosed with ADHD, academics are required earlier in school, recess is being cut out, and many frustrated boys drop out by high school. This prevalent frustration can lead to a child's lack of self-confidence and self-worth, but worse yet, aggression. People are now realizing the increasing crisis facing us today with children slipping further and further behind other nations in Reading, Writing, Math, and Science. The many years of brain research proves over and over that boys and girls need different techniques in the classroom for their best learning environment. This book will guide teachers and parents in activities that are appropriate for boys to excel in learning.
