How can you tell if my child has problems with attention?

/0 Comments/ by
If a child has difficulties with attention they might:
  • Not attend to a task when required/requested to do so.
  • Miss details in instructions.
  • Repeatedly makes the same mistakes (due to not learning from past attention).
  • Be unable to listen to all of the information presented.
  • Find it physically difficult to either calm down (as they are too physically active) or to ‘wake up’ as they appear sleepy and lethargic.
  • Begins a task but then gets distracted by something else and then ‘forgets’ to complete what was asked of them.
