ADHD is not a learning disability, but ADHD symptoms and effects (organization, reduced executive functions, trouble paying attention, impulsivity) can affect some aspects of learning during school years.
The good news is that some ADHD symptoms can be turned into personal strengths, which will allow the individual to achieve great things in their chosen fields.
These worksheets seek to educate and motivate teens who struggle with ADHD-related challenges.
In the first part, we explore different ADHD strengths, what they may look like in everyday life, and how they can sometimes work in our favor.
In the second part, we explore real-life success stories, looking at the challenges, strengths, and experiences of well-known people with (or believed to have had) ADHD. Reflection worksheets encourage teens to think about what they can learn from their stories and which ADHD strengths may have contributed to their success.
Finally, teens bring everything together in their own ADHD Superpowers Profile, reflecting on the strengths they recognize in themselves and how those strengths could help them with their own goals.
This workbook is about acknowledging the struggles associated with ADHD while also helping teens recognize their strengths and discover what works for them.
Note: Some of the characters chosen for these worksheets are historical figures. They were never diagnosed with ADHD, either because this diagnosis didn't exist at the time or if it had been recognized as a condition, the diagnosis was still in its infancy. So, we based our choices on speculation by historians or researchers who have identified traits consistent with this diagnosis. In any case, our main objective has not been historical analysis (we apologize in advance if there are inaccuracies in this text) but inspiration and support to kids with ADHD.
