Executive Function Skills in the Classroom: Overcoming Barriers, Building Strategies. Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series
Faith, Laurie; Bush, Carol-Anne; Dawson, Peg
Guilford Press
With insight and humor, this motivating guide shows how to bring executive functions (EF) to the forefront in K-8 classrooms--without adopting a new curriculum or scripted program. Ideal for professional development, the book includes flexible, practical, research-based ideas for implementation in a variety of classroom contexts. It shares stories from dozens of expert teachers who are integrating explicit EF support across the school day. Provided is a clear approach for talking about EF barriers and strategies as part of instruction, and working as a class to problem-solve, explore, and apply the strategies that feel right for each student. Purchasers get access to a webpage where they can download and print several reproducible tools in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size. [Foreword written by Adele Diamond.]
