Why Teach Executive Functioning Skills?
Executive functioning skills are the building blocks for success. They help students plan, organize materials, get started with tasks, work through challenges, and problem-solve. These are skills that our students use in the classroom, with friends, and in their personal lives beyond school.
It's important to note that all kids, no matter the age, can learn improved executive functioning strategies. These lessons are specifically designed with more pictures, drawing, and simpler wording to allow younger learners to access executive functioning materials.
*** Materials focus on boosting skills and providing strategies. In turn, the goal is for students to feel empowered to do their best. Remember that each child is building their skills at their own pace!
