My dd10 is like this, she is gifted with a beautiful voice and superior auditory memory, however the tapping, clapping, humming, talking, interrupting, dancing, etc., etc finally resulted in our seeking a drs opinion on the behavior. She also has difficulty staying on task in the morning, getting out the door on time (though usually has everything she needs, when she does finally get going). Some issues with finishing work in a timely manner at school, also.
Your child might not have any of the distraction issues, but ours certainly did/does (it is easier to overlook being on time in the summer, but boredom can result in LOTS Of needing to talk nonstop, etc).
She has a diagnosis of adhd - and we are educating ourselves on what that will mean for her education going forward; right now she has a few accommodations at the school, which have been helpful.
