Region 10: Supporting Students With Executive Function Deficits in Common Core Classroom
Description
Do you work with students who are disorganized, inflexible, impulsive, and who struggle with planning and problem solving? Are you concerned that they might struggle meeting the demands that will be placed on them as we move to Common Core State Standards (CCSS)? If so, then this professional learning experience is designed for you! In this dynamic, hands-on, content-rich learning opportunity, you will be introduced to powerful evidence-based strategies that will enable students with executive function deficits to thrive in a Common Core classroom. Participants will leave with strategies that can be used immediately to support students in general education and special education settings, as well as receive a copy of Dr. Sheri Wilkins and Carol Burmeister's book, FLIPP the Switch: Strengthen Executive Function Skills, Autism Asperger Publishing Company (AAPC).<br /><br />Participants will gain knowledge of executive function (EF) skills and how EF deficits can impact learning and behavior in school, learn about how EF deficits are manifested and what disorders exhibit these deficits, discover powerful, evidence-based strategies that can be used to support the learning and behavior of students with EF deficits, and explore the Common Core State Standards and build a repertoire of resources to support all learners in accessing the CCSS.
