Description

Do you start homework and suddenly find yourself doing something else? Forget your PE kit — again? Lose track of time? These are executive function skills: the brain’s manager that plans, starts, focuses, remembers and checks. Some brains need more help with these skills — especially if you have attention difficulties (like ADHD).

In this course you’ll build your own toolkit: tricks to get started, timers to focus, checklists and planners to stay organised, and memory strategies that really work.

This course supports learning; it does not diagnose. If a difficulty continues despite good teaching and practice, talk to the school and a qualified specialist (educational psychologist, speech and language therapist, occupational therapist or doctor). Free for every family and school.

Prerequisites: None.
