The Wellesley Parent Advisory Council Presents:

  

Executive Functioning:

The What's, Where's, and How's of It

Executive Functioning (or EF for short) seems to be the new buzzwords. We know these skills are important, but not necessarily how they impact a child's growth and development.

Melissa Rubin and Marjorie Albin, learning specialists and co-founders of The Student First, will talk with us about what Executive Functioning is, how to recognize EF deficits, and what we can do to help develop these vital skills in our children.
