The Importance of Executive Functioning Skills
Executive functions act as the maestro of cognitive skills, harmonizing and optimizing cognition. While some students naturally possess these skills, others benefit immensely from explicit instruction and tangible resources. This bundle offers an array of tools to bridge this gap.
Core Brain Functions Behind Executive Functions
Although definitions vary, three universally recognized core brain functions underpin executive functioning:
- Working Memory: Governs our ability to manipulate, retain information short-term, and aids in long-term memory encoding and retrieval.
- Inhibitory Control: Manages task initiation, attention focus, metacognition, and thought and emotion regulation.
- Cognitive Flexibility: Enables adaptability to changing demands and perspectives.
Impact of Core Executive Functions
These core functions equip students to:
- Stay attentive.
- Organize, plan, and prioritize.
- Initiate and complete tasks.
- Understand diverse viewpoints.
- Regulate emotions.
- Self-monitor actions and thoughts.
Development Timeline
Initiating executive functioning training early reaps profound benefits, especially given significant growth spurts observed in early elementary years. Nonetheless, these functions continually evolve throughout childhood and typically mature around the age of 20-25.
