Why are we here?Jan 2007 – HCPSS leaders and community members met to assess existing resources for students with LD/ADHD
May 2008 – LD/ADHD Committee reported findings to the Board of Education. Recommendations included:
–System leadership for the effort–Development of resources & training for parents–Systemic dissemination of strategies and resources
2008-2009 - LD/ADHD Design Team created

Banner Question “How do we support the
classroom teacher delivering best practices in instruction and behavioral intervention for students with learning and/or behavioral needs?”

How did we get here?
2009-2011 – Parent resource modules were developed and piloted.
2011- 2012 - LD/ADHD Design Team Professional Development Committee adapted these modules into a series of teacher resource modules.

Outcomes
• Understand the creation of the Executive Functions Modules

Executive functions can be defined as… a collection of processes
that are responsible for guiding, directing and managing cognitive,
emotional and behavioral functions, particularly during novel problem
solving.

How are executive skills developed?
![Page 16: Parent and Teacher Resource Modules. Why are we here? Jan 2007 – HCPSS leaders and community members met to assess existing resources for students with.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649f295503460f94c4258d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Executive skills develop…
through a process called myelination. Myelin acts as insulation for nerves, increasing the speed with which nerve impulses are transmitted. The faster the impulse, the better the skill.
![Page 17: Parent and Teacher Resource Modules. Why are we here? Jan 2007 – HCPSS leaders and community members met to assess existing resources for students with.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649f295503460f94c4258d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
All skills, including executive skills, improve with practice…
The more you practice, the better the skill. Practice also makes the task less effortful.

Development of Executive Functions
![Page 19: Parent and Teacher Resource Modules. Why are we here? Jan 2007 – HCPSS leaders and community members met to assess existing resources for students with.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649f295503460f94c4258d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Students may have weaknesses in one or more executive functions but not have a disability.
Executive skills are not typically fully developed until the age of 25.
![Page 20: Parent and Teacher Resource Modules. Why are we here? Jan 2007 – HCPSS leaders and community members met to assess existing resources for students with.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649f295503460f94c4258d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Until executive skills are fully developed in students, parents and teachers act as
“surrogate” frontal lobes.
Three primary ways to develop executive skills:
1. Change the environment to reduce the impact of weak executive skills.
2. Teach and model executive skills.
3. Use incentives to get students to use skills that are hard for them.
![Page 22: Parent and Teacher Resource Modules. Why are we here? Jan 2007 – HCPSS leaders and community members met to assess existing resources for students with.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649f295503460f94c4258d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Executive Functions serve as a Cognitive Conductor
The conductor or “master control” for all higher order and basic information processing.
The brain’s master control and command system.

Do you know your executive functions?
In groups of 2-3, match the nine executive functions with their definitions.

What do executive function
weaknesses look like in
your students?

What is a Learning Disability?
• Brain 'processes' information differently
• Certain kinds of information get stuck or lost while traveling through the brain.
• Causes a 'discrepancy' between ability and achievement.

What is Autism?
“Developmental disability that impacts development in the areas of
• verbal and non-verbal communication• social interactions• leisure or play activities”

What is ADHD?
Characterized by developmentally inappropriate
• inattention
• impulsivity
• hyperactivity
