Practical Classroom Strategies for Executive Functioning

Learn what the latest research says about ADHD and Executive Functioning in children to better understand the impacts in the classroom such as working memory, cognitive flexibility, and self regulation/inhibition.

You will walk away with practical, evidence based strategies to improve these areas and specifically improve attending, organizing/planning, task initiation, managing emotions, and self-monitoring. Since many other students often struggle with various executive functioning due to trauma, anxiety, or disabilities, these strategies can be applied for a variety of populations.
