Executive Function Skills
Executive Function Skills: Success in the Classroom
Foundational Learning with Sarah Ward, MA, CCC-SLP
What skills do students need to learn to be organized and successful in managing their own time and tasks in the classroom?
The term "executive function" is used to describe the skill set required for setting goals, carrying out organized steps, and modifying a plan to complete a task successfully in the classroom. All students benefit from instructional strategies that foster executive function skills, however, students with traumatic brain injury, ADHD, and specific learning disabilities frequently experience difficulties with these particular skills.
This session is designed for K-12th grade Oakland County public school educators who work with students with IEPs and want to learn specially-designed instructional strategies that facilitate students' executive function skills for success in school.
