The main problems that face children in school are that they are unable to sit still, have very short attention spans, have inappropriate outburst and are generally disruptive in class. They are very easily distracted so they have difficulty staying on task, which can be very stressful on teachers. There is also a very high incidence of comorbidity with children suffering from ADHD, the most common comorbid diagnosis is a learning disability. This increases the problems they have in school. If you can imagine a child who is unable to pay attention and concentrate at any given time and then have them perform work that is frustrating and difficult for them, it is going to be even harder to keep them focused. There are some ideas on what teachers should do to help deal with a child with ADHD in their classroom. Wolraich (2003) states that, �the teacher should help the child avoid distractions, perhaps by placing the child's seat at the front of the room, for example. When new problems arise or the child enters a new developmental stage, the nature and intensity of the therapy may need to be reevaluated� (pp. 60). The key is to be patient and constantly reevaluate and assess the child and support and encourage them as much as possible.
