LIVE CLASS FOR 8- 12 YEAR OLDS - https://outschool.com/classes/executive-functioning-memory-focus-self-control-neurodivergent-live-class-czlKy1i1?refuid=Pn0SAuGY   

Welcome to this exciting Self Paced Class! In this class, the focus is on teaching your child essential Executive Functioning Skills, which are crucial for their academic success and overall development. As an experienced teacher practitioner in this area, I've crafted a dynamic curriculum that strikes the perfect balance between learning and fun!

Throughout the course, your child will engage in a variety of activities designed to enhance their executive functioning skills. Here's a breakdown of what we'll cover each week:

⭐️ Week 1: Working memory: The capacity to hold and manipulate information in mind for short periods, which is essential for tasks like following directions or solving problems.

⭐️ Week 2: Impulse control: The ability to resist immediate urges or temptations.

⭐️ Week 3: Planning: The ability to set simple goals and use strategies to meet the goal/ task.

⭐️ Week 4: Emotional regulation: The capability to manage emotions appropriately in various situations, which is crucial for decision-making and interpersonal interactions.

⭐️ Week 5: Flexibility: Being able to adapt to change, and think creatively in different situations.

⭐️ Week 6: Organisation: The capacity to arrange and prioritise tasks.

How will the lesson be taught -

📌 Real-Life Examples: Using relatable scenarios or stories to illustrate the practical application of each skill.

📌Games: Students learn best when having fun!

📌Interactive Activities: Engaging in hands-on exercises tailored to each executive function skill. For instance, practicing emotional regulation through role-playing, art, worksheets and mindfulness exercises.

📌Peer Collaboration: Encouraging teamwork and group activities, fostering a supportive learning environment. Your child's work may also be featured in class materials with your approval.

📌Reflection and Feedback: Providing opportunities for self-assessment and feedback to track progress effectively. I'll also work closely with you to support your child's development.

📌Application Beyond the Classroom: Helping your child recognise how these skills extend beyond our lessons into their daily lives.

I encourage parents to oversee their child's engagement in the flex course because with executive functioning difficulties, your child may need extra support to stay on track.

By the end of the course, your child will have strengthened their executive functioning skills and gained confidence in applying them independently. I'm thrilled to embark on this journey with your child, and I look forward to seeing their growth and progress!
