12. Goals: focus on short term goals and activities to keep your child focused

or “I can never please them”.
14. Tasks-Routines-Learning: Utilize the visual aspect of learning with a “Hands O
n” approach. Let them “See & Touch” while learning. Simple flow charts, diagrams that
they help create will help them stay on task. Utilize “incidental learning techni
ques”.

er child and feel important. This is done many times in an ATA Martial Arts Sch
ool to positively correct a behavioral concern.
16. Communication: utilize effective communication. This means we want to find w
hat “clicks” for our children when communicating. Raising ones voice, yelling, screa
ming will cause a child to shut down and become a non-listener.
17. Therapy: There are many types of therapy, research all your avenues. Rememb
er, it’s alright to ask for help.
18. Family Time: family time is important, knowing one has support in a caring a
nd loving environment. Spend quality time with your child, pick a day each week
that is family day. Let your child assist in the decision making process as to w
hat the family will do on family day. Chesapeake and Virginia Beach Martial Arts

r Developmental Skills” that assist parents and their children on strengthening th
eir abilities in all aspects of their lives. Senior Master Thomas states: “ATA Mar
tial Arts Instructors aren’t Doctors, but we truly believe and have seen time and
time again that children and adults can reduce and in many cases, no longer need
the medication prescribed for ADD/ADHD. It’s about trying multiple options and th
ere are many out there”. www.atakick.com
20. Parent Education: Parents, please study hard and research the various option
s for your children. Ask your Instructor if there is something more they can do
to help. Many times there is a small positive reward that can be announced in cl
ass for a positive action or accomplishment. Please remember, you aren’t in this a
lone and there are numerous amount of people that can help.
