DescriptionResearch shows that executive function skills affect school readiness, school success, college graduation rates, work and life success; and these skills can be taught and encouraged at any age.  These monthly sessions (2 hour information session with a 1 hour "coaching" follow up session) focus on fun, everyday activities, including using children's books, that educators and providers can use to promote and support the development of an essential executive function skill.

Children need the Life Skill of Focus and Self Control in order to achieve their goals, especially in a world that is filled with distractions and information overload.  It involves paying attention, remembering the rules, thinking flexibly, and exercising self control.
