Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Keep instructions simple and structured. Use props, charts, and other visual aids. Vary the pace and include different kinds of activities. Many students with ADHD do well with competitive games or other activities that are rapid and intense.

Detailed explanation-2: -Use flexible seating, like wiggle chairs, standing desks, footrests, seat cushions, or resistance bands on chair legs. Increase the space between desks or work tables (if social distancing guidelines aren’t already in place). Designate a quiet work space in the classroom.

Detailed explanation-3: -Give a simple, clear, descriptive instruction Instead, give a specific instruction such as “I need you to pick up your backpack off the floor and hang it on the hook.” Since ADHD kids become distracted easily, give only one small instruction at a time, and ensure they complete it before giving them another one.
