Klappentext

Bring executive function into the elementary classroom or homeschool learning environment with this friendly resource book packed with tips and activities for teaching young students important self-management skills and building their confidence.

Executive functioning skills refer to a person’s aptitude for planning and engaging in tasks that require problem-solving, flexible thinking, and self-discipline. People use executive function skills, from learning new academic concepts to caring for our bodies and nurturing relationships, every day. In the elementary classroom, young students who struggle with developing these skills can often feel isolated, which can ultimately impede their learning progress.

And more!
