AVAILABLE OCTOBER 15-Age 12-18 Executive Functions: Intervention Strategies

Executive Function and the Adolescent Brain

For middle and high school educators. A seven-module companion study for individual reading or a PLC.

So much of what looks like apathy or attitude in a teenager is executive function and regulation still catching up. This seven-module study guides you through Alice Kassotaki's Executive Functions (Ages 12 to 18), grounded in how the adolescent brain actually works, a powerful engine with brakes that are still being built. You will get the developmental picture across the teen years, strategies you can use in class, teacher reflection prompts, and the book's three-perspective assessment that brings the student's own voice into the conversation. A recurring thread looks at how these skills can help students who are struggling with anxiety, and when to involve your counselor.

To secure a copy of this book, you can reach out to your public library, purchase through the www.upbility.net website, or check out used book websites.

Meet your students where their brains actually are and build the skills alongside them.
