Use close proximity, tap their desk. Stay in contact with their parent. What have you been taught?

Sign your child up for a sport, art class, or music. At home, organize simple activities that fill up your child’s time. These can be tasks like helping you cook, playing a board game with a sibling, or drawing a picture

Support the child's interest, in this way you can always get his/her attention.

I use "break breaks" to get them up (such as doing 10 jacks ) -- then get back to work. It allows them to get energy out and re-focus.
