Executive Function Skill Building Graders 3rd-5th
Executive Function (EF) skills in young children are linked to school achievement and social-emotional development, making EF skill building vitally important for all students in elementary school. These tutorial sessions provide practical strategies to support and strengthen the developing EF skills of all elementary students, as well as key scaffolds and accommodations that help students with ADHD and others with EF impairments (learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorder) succeed in school and beyond. These sessions will cover specific strategies to help strengthen the following executive function skills: inhibition, working memory, planning, sustained focus and attention, organization, activation/initiation, time management, shifting/flexibility, self-monitoring and metacognition, and emotional control.
