Why Teach Executive Functioning Skills?

Research has shown that well-developed executive function skills are closely related to school readiness with Kindergarteners and academic success in school-aged children.

What is Executive Function?

Executive functioning skills can be described as a set of cognitive skills that require the orchestration of many cognitive functions and the use of more than one cognitive function simultaneously. Planning, Problem solving, Behavioral regulation, Emotional control, Organization of one’s thoughts & materials, Cognitive Flexibility, Working Memory and the ability to both initiate and complete tasks/projects all fall under the umbrella of executive function. And, the benefit of these skills in teens will multiply during adolescence when their brain is more emotionally driven.

To put it more simply – executive function has to do with one’s ability to take a variety of mental skills and put them together to do things, such as solve problems, change course, look at the bigger picture, focus, and take action. Without it, we aren’t going to be productive or successful at much of anything.

Practicing GRATITUDE is Good for Your Brain?

Research shows that practicing gratitude increases one’s ability to deal with stress and live better quality of life!
Expressing gratitude should not be just for Thanksgiving. Creating a collection of everyone’s thanks onto My Family’s Thankful Book turns giving thanks into a great opportunity for your child(ren) and your family to celebrate what is right with your family!
