Course Description
Is your child hyperactive? Do they have a lazy streak, or no desire to learn? Maybe they can t understand the concept of good behavior? If you or your children are on special diets due to behavioral or learning disabilities, this course will help you learn to take your special needs, and build a firm foundation in the management and recovery of it. You can teach your child to be accountable for their actions and resume a responsible way of life. The course can also help the millions of parents who want a way to keep their kids off Ritalin and other drugs-for behavioral issues. The majority of Doctors in the world are treating these behaviors with Ritalin and other potent psycho stimulants. With long term life-threatening effects from its long-term use, care givers are finding it paramount to begin to treat the real problems, not just the symptoms of it with these drugs. This course is intended for parents and teachers to obtain information and download resources to use with children. It will use online activities which will help you child become responsible for their own disabilities. By implementing the logs and Health Journal within, your children can learn with a daily routine, and be responsible for their actions. You will be building an entire Journal, which will be a useful resource for years to come. This will fit in with any "notebooking" students too! Course Requirements
To benefit the most from this course, you will need the following items. Windows Word Documents will be used widely, it is necessary that you be able to open these files. Printer/Ink/Paper You may make a binder for your Journal which you will be building, or even use a three ring binder. You will be adding at least one new page per day, so which ever your choice, keep it simple. We have purchased a Special Binder for the children in order to make our learning a more personal experience. You will see a link to the one we use in the first class lessons. Crayons or colored pencils Scissors Glue/Paste (age according) Tabs for separations are helpful but not necessary. Most importantly, you will be forming new habits by practicing away your old ones, so you will need the desire to change and grow from this experience. Course Goals
Your goal for this course is to help a child become the best person they can be. The child will learn to take responsibility for their time in each day, and to use this time to do positive things with it. It will lead to self gratification and self esteem when each task is accomplished, therefore making responsibility for ones self, a fun thing.
