| 1. | It’s easy to recite an entire book but difficult to make up a story |
| 2. | It’s easy to line up toys but difficult to stay in line |
| 3. | It makes perfect sense to climb on the sofa but little sense to sit on it |
| 4. | Memorizing the Presidents in order – 10 minutes. Packing a school bag – 10 hours |
| 5. | Family pictures on the wall are boring but that speck of dust next to it, now that’s fascinating! |
| 6. | Talking about weather patterns – piece of cake. Talking about my day… impossible! |
| 7. | Ability to focus on spinning objects – timeless, ability to focus on homework – 3 seconds |
| 8. | Being called by name, can’t hear it. Some owl hooting in the distance – clear as a bell |
| 9. | How to operate the remote control – zero instruction. How to button up pants – intensive instruction |
| 10. | Navigating social rules – poorly skilled, Navigating from the back seat of the car – highly skilled |
