Accessible and practical, this book helps teachers incorporate executive function processes; such as planning, organising, prioritising, and self-checking; into the classroom curriculum. Chapters provide effective strategies for optimising what K-12 students learn by improving how they learn. Noted authority Lynn Meltzer and her research associates present a wealth of easy-to-implement assessment tools, teaching techniques and activities, and planning aids. Featuring numerous whole-class ideas and suggestions, the book also shows how to differentiate instruction for students with learning or attention difficulties.
Case examples illustrate individualised teaching strategies and classroom accommodations. More than a dozen reproducibles are included; the large-size format facilitates photocopying and day-to-day reference.
