Today, we'll talk about how to live and thrive with attention deficit disorder. But first, diagnosing it. New Hampshire has one of the highest per capita rates of Ritalin prescriptions - one of the drugs used to treat ADD. What does that mean? Producer Phil Vaughn has the story. 230-233 QUICK |

How can you help a child, or a family member living with ADD? how do you get the most out of living with add Q SUE ELLIS: The Hunter school tries to change the mindset that ADD is a disorder -- that it can actually be an ADVANTAGE.

Q SUE/ MARCUS: You know the students you're teaching have ADD -- Public school teachers may not have that information -- aren't they at a disadvantage in helping these kids?? ** How can PUBLIC schools implement Strength based TEACHING ?

| Post Show Log Return to index of stories... |
Monday, March 28, 2005: Beth spent some time de-briefing the three in-studio guests before taping. We ended up starting closer to 5:30pm. We had a new AD training. Drew Adams did a great job. It was his first in-studio conversation alone. The show went well. We finished by 6pm. Director's Log: Everything went fine. The audio mixer still has that problem with VTR 16 that makes us start over again at least once or fix it at the end. The engineers tell me that has been looked at MANY times and the realized the only way to fix it is to get a new audio mixer board. The guest stayed after show to talk to Beth and that sometimes does cause us to wait to do the promo. But it seemed okay tonight. |

Coming up on NH Outlook March 28 - April 1, 2005 Monday, March 28 Attention Deficit Disorders Attention Deficit Disorders are on the rise. At least the diagnosis is increasing. And, New Hampshire leads the nation in per capita consumption of Ritalin, one drug used to treat ADD. There are questions, however about how many people are misdiagnosed. Modern life, some doctors say, imitates the symptoms of ADD. We'll explore the importance of a proper diagnosis and how to live with ADD. Tuesday, March 29 Teacher of the Year; Folksinger in Residence What does graph master boogie and rap music have to do with math? Plenty if you're New Hampshire's Teacher of the Year. Randy Wormald teaches math at Belmont High School. Wormald is a native of New Hampshire and has been teaching for 17 years. Chip Neal attended class with "Mr. Worm" as he is affectionately known around the school. Folksinger in Residence Folksinger Jeff Warner brings history and culture to life through music. Using humor, age-old instruments, and song -- Warner presents the oral literature of early American life with stories of real people not found in history books. Kids sing his songs for weeks after he's gone. Warner is an artist for the NH council on the Arts. Beth Carroll taped him during his Artist-in-Residence stint in Hopkinton. Wednesday, March 30 State Climatologist; Snowmobile Safety It wasn't your imagination, this winter was among the snowiest on record. At the same time, New Hampshire is warmer on average now than it was a hundred years ago. Chip Neal talks to New Hampshire’s new State Climatologist David Brown about these weather phenomenon and more. Snowmobile Safety Also in this program, it was a little more than a year ago when a New Hampshire mom lost her son to a snowmobile accident. Now, she's using that experience to help prevent others from dying on the trails. Hear what Fran Tishkevich is talking about. Thursday, March 31 State Budget Hearings The House Finance Committee is proposing about $160 million in cuts to the state budget - including over $100 million in social services. At a public hearing in Representatives Hall, members of the public express their views on what gets cut and what survives. Richard Ager will be at the hearing and report on the highlights. Friday, April 1 Friday Edition Journalists from around the state discuss the week's top stories. Guests tba. |
