With the hyperactive section of ADHD, the child might feel the need to keep moving and not be able to sit still. The student might bounce their leg or mess with their clothes. In a classroom, the inattentive part of ADHD might be triggered by external distractions like classmates or random things in the room. ]]> 2021-12-12 09:38:47 UTC https://padlet.com/carlayysaenz0809/n1zb4y99o63ty6v2/wish/1942462949
