This session will describe the crucial role of executive functions in learning and developing pre- academic skills. It will discuss evidence-based strategies teachers, aides, and parents can use to help children improve executive functions that facilitate pre-academic skill development. Expected Learner Outcomes At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to: 1. Define executive functions and explain their role in pre-academic skill development during early childhood. 2. Recognize specific behaviors indicating executive function difficulties that negatively impact pre-academic skill development during early childhood. 3. Apply evidence-based strategies to help children improve self-regulation to facilitate pre-academic skill development. 4. Identify sources of information about how to improve executive functions to facilitate pre-academic skill development.
