Parent Workshop Make and Take | 2 Sessions Available

Executive Function (EF) is a collection of mental processes that assist in organizing, planning, problem-solving, managing time, attending to and remembering details, remaining calm under pressure, and being flexible when things do not work out right the first time. Although many educators associate deficits in EF skills with students on the autism spectrum, the reality is that many young people struggle with executive functioning as these skills are not fully developed until people are well into their twenties. In this content-rich learning opportunity, participants will learn powerful evidence-based strategies that support competent EF in all environments and will create several visual tools that can support the development of competent EF. The presenters, co-authors of FLIPP the Switch: Strengthen Executive Function Skills as well as FLIPP 2.0: Mastering Executive Function from School to Adult Life, have provided professional development nation-wide and internationally.
