In order for children to plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks, they need good executive functioning skills. Many children with autism and other developmental delays lack these critical skills that come naturally to other kids. Here, we discuss how to teach executive functioning skills effectively to our learners. Executive functioning skills include time management, emotional control, working memory, and task initiation.

When it comes to executive functioning, the earlier we can introduce these skills to our learners the better. We break down the various skills so they’re easier to teach. In many cases, we teach our kids valuable life skills, but it’s important to build in the foundation of executive functioning so they’re more successful. We also talk about visual and auditory memory, setting up the right situations to teach skills and introduce concepts, and more.

What’s Inside:

  • Examples of executive functioning skills and why they’re important
  • The importance of including executive functioning when teaching basic life skills
  • How to set up the right situations to teach skills and introduce concepts
