Super Skills for School & Home: Building Your Brain’s Power!

This interactive workshop introduces students and families to eight executive function “super skills” that act as the brain’s power tools for success. Through games, challenges, and guided activities, participants explore how these skills help with organization, problem-solving, focus, and following directions. Practical strategies are modeled for both home and school, making it easy for children to build routines and apply new skills daily. The session concludes with an action plan so each child leaves with clear steps to strengthen one executive function skill.

• Difficulty staying organized and managing daily tasks
  
  
• Challenges with self-regulation, focus, and starting work promptly
  
  
• Struggles in remembering multi-step directions and following through on responsibilities
