Executive Functions
 |
| "Executive Functions are the brain processes that enable us to regulate the world around us, utilizing organizational and higher-order learning skills." |
This week we launched a new, research based curriculum called Executive Functions. Students will be taught specific lessons on topics that include, material management, time management, study strategies, goal setting, decision making and problem solving, and learning strengths. These lessons are designed to provide students with the skills to be successful through college and beyond. This week was lesson one, organization systems. If you get a chance, ask to look at your child's binder :).
