Powerful Strategies to Help Children Develop Independent Executive Function Skills

Workshop with Sarah Ward, M.S. CCC/SLP
Monday, March 28, 7:00pm on Zoom
Space is limited so register soon: https://www.nspac.org/Registration2
Do you have a child who struggles to manage their time and their stuff? Dealing with homework battles? You don’t want to miss this workshop with executive function expert Sarah Ward. You’ll leave with actionable and practical strategies to help at school and home. Mark your calendar today!
Executive function skills refer to the mental skills we use to pay attention, to organize and plan tasks and materials, to start tasks and stay focused on them, to manage emotions and be flexible, and to keep track of what we are doing. These skills can impact students at home, school, and in social situations.
In this practical strategies seminar, parents and professionals will develop a solid understanding of what the executive function skills are and how they impact a student’s academic and personal performance.
Get to know the Special Education Coordinators!
Join SEPAC on Zoom for a chance to meet and talk with the special educaion coordinators. Learn about their position and how they can help you and your child. They will often be running your IEP meetings so this is great time to connect and ask questions about their role.
