Le retour à l'école sera inhabituel pour les familles cette année. Quoique tout le monde doit vivre une période d'ajustement, les enfants avec un diagnostique de TDAH auront certains défis additionnels à surmonter. Ce webinaire traite de comment favoriser la rentrée pour les enfants avec un TDAH cette année.
All students returning to school this fall will be forced to navigate a new reality, but students struggling with ADHD and other neurodevelopmental disabilities will be exceptionally challenged. Anticipating this, parents are rightly concerned. Find out what additional challenges your child can expect, questions you should be asking your child’s school so you can be prepared and ways to obtain those answers. In addition, parents will receive tips on preparing their child for this new environment and advice on preparing the school for their child’s additional needs.

Le TDAH est un trouble neurodéveloppemental associé à des déficits centraux sur le plan de l’autocontrôle et des fonctions exécutives qui entrainent des difficultés comportementales, sociales et d’apprentissage (Barkley, 2005). Les études démontrent que les enfant ayant un TDAH sous-performent académiquement en comparaison à leurs pairs (Daley & Birchwood, 2010; DuPaul & Langberg, 2014). De plus, les défis associés à l’apprentissage des enfants ayant un TDAH ne sont pas limités à la salle de classe et interfèrent avec la réalisation de projets et de devoirs à la maison (Power et al., 2006; Langberg et al., 2016). Avec la situation de pandémie mondiale où l’apprentissage virtuel est devenu l’approche de prédilection des établissements d’enseignements, il est important de considérer les besoins spécifiques des enfants ayant un TDAH. Cette présentation permettra aux participants d’identifier les avantages et les inconvénients de l’apprentissage virtuel et présentera des stratégies concrètes pour contrer les déficits des fonctions exécutives lors de l’enseignement à domicile.

La différenciation entre les diagnostiques de trouble de déficit d’attention/hyperactivité et d’anxiété peut être difficile considérant que plusieurs symptômes se chevauchent entre les deux conditions (p.ex., agitation psychomotrice, difficultés de concentration, diminution de l’attention, augmentation de la distractibilité, changements d’humeur, et éclats de colère). De plus, les études démontrent qu’environ un tiers des adultes ayant un TDAH ont également un trouble comorbide d’anxiété ou d’humeur (Managing ADHD, 2007). Chez les enfants, le taux de comorbidité de ces troubles est d’environ 25% dans la population générale et d’environ 30 à 40% chez les enfants référés cliniquement (Jarrett et al., 2016). Ainsi, il peut être difficile de déterminer si un individu a un trouble d’anxiété, un TDAH ou les deux. Cette présentation permettra aux participant de : 1) comprendre les symptômes qui se chevauchent entre les deux conditions et apprendre à les différencier, 2) développer une approche au diagnostic différentiel du TDAH et de l’anxiété, et 3) déterminer quand un double diagnostic est approprié.

"I loved it! It provided us with affirmation that we are supporting our son in constructive ways. It also gave us insight into the areas where we could improve. Most importantly, we were relieved to hear of the commonalities amongst individuals with ADHD. It made us feel part of a community. We feel like we understand our son better with respect to what behaviours and characteristics can be explained by his ADHD and what cannot be defined by it as well."

ADHD in early childhood (under six years of age) continues to be under recognized and under treated. This is of considerable concern because 79% of children with ADHD test impaired in school readiness despite their IQ being equivalent to other children.
Early assessment and diagnosis of ADHD allows for the implementation of specialized behavioural strategies, school and home supports and other ADHD treatments; this will help reduce future struggles in elementary school and mitigate the long-term side effects of not treating ADHD.
Learn to recognize indicators of early childhood ADHD, what these children look like in the home and school setting, what is involved in an ADHD assessment and why these children have difficulty with executive functioning and self and emotional regulation. Proven behavioural and social skills strategies will also be discussed.

The doctor or psychologist has just informed you that your child or adolescent has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD. You may be shocked, or maybe you have suspected it for some time. Either way, unless you have been down this path before, you have a long list of questions and concerns. Your medical professional gave you a quick overview of ADHD, but you are now looking to the Internet for more information and others are giving you a great deal of unsolicited advice. How do you know what’s sound advise and what’s not? What do you tell the school? Should you even tell the school and how do you get your child the help they need? What about getting a psychoeducational assessment? What about treatment? Do all children with ADHD require medication and what about all those natural treatments? This presentation will answer these questions and more, guide you to your next steps and teach you how to become an informed consumer and advocate for your child.
