I struggle with ADHD and this is a HUGE issue I deal with every day, all day.
When my kid was little, he HAD to be moving all the time, especially for his brain to work. He memorized his entire times tables while jumping on the trampoline. He had a pencil tapping or his leg bouncing or something moving while doing his schoolwork. He just did not learn while sitting completely still. So I don't think movement counts as "multitasking" in this instance.
I can totally see this. When my son was younger and we had to go over spelling words, he had to be spinning in circles or trying to stand on his head.
