Executive Functioning and Emotional Regulation

Executive Functioning (EF) is the brain’s ability to perform management tasks such as setting goals, creating a plan and achieving objectives. We have specific lessons to develop our students’ executive functioning skills. 

• Students are taught how to set short and long term goals, keep track of them and reflect on their progress. 

• Our executive functioning curriculum is coupled with behavioral strategies that support our students’ goal achievement and self-reinforcement.

• Students learn to pay more attention to key parts of a task and be more strategic with their actions.

• Students improve their emotional self-regulation.
