Description
Executive functions are vital for learner success. In this session, we will explore how to develop them in every classroom.
Particpiants will:
- understand the connection between executive functions and self-management skills
- learn how to implement these skills across the whole school
- distinguish between core and higher order executive functions and why age-appropriate expectations are critical
- identify signs of executive dysfunction and challenge the myth that students should already know how to learn.
At the end of this session, you will have three key ways to support the development of executive functions.
