Students with IEPs are required to be provided with Specially Designed Instruction that ensures they have access to the general education curriculum. We can support you in thinking through how to break down a topic or lesson into digestible chunks and provide just enough scaffolding to help students succeed, without over-scaffolding and keeping them from succeeding on their own. We can help!
This tool is designed to help adults make executive function visible and actionable during instruction. To meaningfully engage with content, students must be able to attend, process information, make connections, and manage cognitive demands in real time. By using targeted prompts and visuals, adults support students in applying these executive function skills directly to academic tasks so they can actively participate in learning without reducing cognitive rigor.
This goal-setting tool is designed to help students take ownership of their learning and build skills that transfer beyond the classroom. By setting clear goals, breaking them into manageable steps, tracking progress, and reflecting on outcomes, students practice key executive function skills such as initiating a task, planning, self-monitoring, and accountability. These routines reinforce that success results from intentional actions and support students as they prepare for real-world expectations in school, work, and community settings.
