Catalog Description: We all have that student in our classroom who tends to be wiggly, fidgety, impulsive, scattered, disorganized, and emotional, but who is also undeniably lovable, funny, refreshing, and curious. At times we might find ourselves ready to scream and other times bursting into laughter because of the curveballs that come our way. This is not a diagnosis class, but rather an opportunity to learn more about ADHD characteristics and gather intervention strategies to support students so that they can succeed in school and build confidence as learners.

o Distinguish what is ADHD and what is not ADHD
