Hyperactivity equally touches both boys, and girls
Despite of the believe that hyperactivity, as a rule, affects only boys, girls are also subject to hyperactivity and show the same symptoms.

Hyperactivity frequently remains at the adult age
More than 70 % of hyperactive children stay hyperactive at teenage age, though, maybe, to a lesser degree. And almost 50 % of children have this syndrome in an adult life. Hyperactivity usually disappear by the teenage age, but lack of attention and inability to concentrate are still kept.

Hyperactive children can be taught
Such children for the best mastering of the material need to be active during lessons. Thus there is an impression that their brain work only when the body moves. They like lessons during which they can make something by hands, to test something, build models, and in mathematics, for example, use an abacus. During learning and storing the information they usually touch or move things and it is better not to disturb them.
