Students who are easily distracted

Distractability - the root of this issue is vast and difficult to define. Needless to say it is a frustrating reality that teachers cope with daily.
There is little we can do if the student is distracted by something that may have happened outside of school - what we can control is our classroom environment and how we manipulate it to ensure that a student remains engaged.
Here are a few things that can be done to help distracted students within your class:
1) Reduce stimuli
2) Change the student's seat so that he/she experiences the least amount of stimuli

What are some other things that can be done to reduce student distractability?
