If you are a teacher who has been challenged by the task of teaching children with ADHD, the idea itself may be overwhelming. You may have images of children bouncing off the walls in your classroom disrupting all learning. Before you enter a full blown panic, understand that there are many things you can do to encourage their learning and full participation in your class environment.
Plan for Success
Understand that each child with ADHD will have slightly different manifestations of the condition; one may not be able to sit still while another needs to roam. Placing the roaming child towards the back of the class so they can get up for a quick wander or getting the fidgeter an exercise ball to sit on may resolve the distraction issues presented to other students can help when teaching children with ADHD.  <a href='http://lifewithadhd.com/adhd-in-the-classroom/adaptations-for-teaching-children-with-adhd.php'>Read More</a>]]></content:encoded>

Impulsiveness, lack of attention and hyperactivity are the common traits of children with ADHD. All of these can make it hard to teach children in a school environment.
