Multivariate analysis of variance were used for data analysis. Results: The study showed that there was a signifiant difference (P<0.001) between profie sensory with an average score of sensory processing (F=25.5), sensory modulation (F=19.1), behavioral and emotional responseand (F=23.1) and fie and gross motor skills with an average score of gross motor skills (F=92.1) and fie motor skills (F=86.1) the student with and without ADHD. Conclusion: Whereas the fie and gross motor skills and sensory profie of students with ADHD compared to normal students in trouble, it is essential to focus attention to clinical interventions to increase and improve fie and gross motor skills and sensory profie of students with ADHD to enhance their social adjustment and quality of life
