Here are some accommodation ideas for any student to increase time on task:

Written and posted daily schedules and assignments

At least one day notice (when possible) for schedule changes Consistent schedules (as much as possible)

Allowing time for movement during classroom "seat" time (all students benefit from this!)

Supplement verbal directions with visual instructions (task cards, demonstration, etc.)

Chunk assignments or test questions with breaks and positive feedback in between

Develop and private signal or cue to the student (imagine if the principal called a teacher out when not giving 100% at a staff meeting :)

Examine expectations and compare data with same age peers. Sometimes our expectations for students with ADHD behaviors begin to exceed our expectations for other students.

Provide opportunities for hands-on learning Allow the student to stand while working or listening
