      I am thinking of students that I suspected had ADHD in my classroom, but they performed better than other
      students on tests, activities, etc. Maybe they weren’t adhd……just had psychomotor excitabilities!

      I thought this was interesting. It really helps you discern between students who might be having trouble staying focused and those that are just overexciteable.
