You notice that Krista, one of your students, rarely finishes her homework. In class, you notice that she is often squirming in

her seat and looking around the room while you're talking, and she sometimes "drifts off" even when you're speaking directly to her. Concerned, you check her records and talk to her previous teachers. You see that she was given the WISC-III (an individualized intelligence test), and her score was slightly above average. Her other teachers comment that the patterns you've observed existed in their classes as well. Based on this information, which of the following most accurately describes the patterns you've observed in Krista's behavior?
a. She is mildly intellectually handicapped.
b. She is behaviorally disordered.
c. She has a communication disorder.
d. She has an attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

They may do things without asking for permission, , or act in ways that are too risky for themselves and others.
