Let's learn all about executive functioning skills. In this 5-week social skills camp learners will get good foundational knowledge about planning, organization, time management, task initiation, working memory, metacognition, self-control, attention, flexibility, and perseverance. Week 1: Planning with Patrick the Pig & Organization with Oscar the Ostrich Week 2: Time Management with Tilly the Toucan & Task Initiation with Tia the T-Rex Week 3: Working Memory with Wilma the Wooly Mammoth & Metacognition with Molly the Manatee Week 4: Self-Control with Sophia the Squirrel & Attention with Farrah the Ferret Week 5: Flexibility with Finley the Falcon & Perseverance with Paris the Penguin This camp will be structured as an interactive discussion with me and other learners. We will use visual aids to help us discuss these ideas, and I heavily encourage all comments and questions from learners! Students will also be creating an interactive notebook to keep for themselves about all the different topics that we discuss in class. I will also post informational sheets and worksheets for learners for each day, as well as some fun Executive Functioning activities! Everything they need for class, if it is for their interactive notebook or worksheets I will provide them prior to class. Learners will not need any prior knowledge of Executive Functioning to enjoy this camp!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Wisconsin Teaching Certificate in Special Education
Hello! My name is Teacher Hannah. I have been a teacher for 10 years. My experiences include public elementary and middle school, after school programs, summer camp settings, online setting, autism therapy, and I am also a special education teacher in the public elementary setting. My career has allowed me to teach a range of students which includes, gifted students, students with specific learning needs, students with behavioral needs, students on the Autism spectrum, and English language learners.
I have taught many different subjects throughout my years. Some of my favorite topics to teach include but are not limited to read alouds, Harry Potter, exercise (any physical activities), yoga, any and all animals, discussion groups, space, social and emotional learning, self-regulation, and many more!
When I am working with students, I encourage them to create a sense of community among themselves. Working together verses as an independent instructor and a group of students help create a safe place for ideas to flow. I want students to leave my classroom as well-rounded people who can interact with their peers as independent thinkers.
I encourage my students to make mistakes and learn from them and to have a growth mindset. When children challenge themselves they are exercising and growing their brains. When a student fails at something I want them to see it as a learning opportunity. Learning to challenge themselves in and outside the classroom will help them become persistent, resilient, well-rounded individuals.
When I am not teaching I enjoy drawing, reading, hiking, exercising, singing, dancing, nature, animals, playing video games, listening to music, taking care of my autistic brother, and being with my spouse and family.
I look forward to seeing you in the classroom and all the learning and fun we will have!Reviews
