That's a problem, there really isn't much you can do from home. Does your daughter have ADD or ADHD? All 3 of my young siblings have them to some extent, it made it impossible for my parents to put them in school. They are being home schooled right now, and it works well; they pay attention more when with their parents.

If home schooling is not an option for you, there are certain medications that are safe for young children to take that help with concentration. Though you should know many of them have side effects and may not be worth using. Aside from that, about the only thing you can do is some small exercises that help improve attention span; you can find a bunch of them with a quick search online.

Hope I helped in some way.
