[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regardless of what your child says, you tell him that he needs to find a way to occupy his time that is not seen as disruptive. He can review his past notes or the past chapters, which will help him prepare for tests. He can bring a book to read and rea quietly after he has completed his work. He can ask his teacher for additional material to work on when he is done.

He cannot talk to his friends, even if he thinks he is "helping" them. He cannot leave his desk and wander around the classroom. He cannot do things that are distracting to other kids.

Have a meeting with the teacher, your son, and yourself and develop a clear list of what he can do when he finishes work and what he cannot do when he finishes work.

Your child might think he is helping his friends when his teacher sees that it is distracting for his friends or other kids in the class. He is seeing thigns through his lens and does not see the larger picture. [/quote]

"He cannot leave his desk and wander around the classroom."  - That's actually a basic ADHD accommodation. My son had that in his 504 - he was allowed to get up from his desk and walk around the classroom.[/quote]
