This resource for teachers and school-based clinicians provides teaching routines and practical tools to help students with conditions such as such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and acquired brain injury develop 11 specific executive skills such as sustained attention and time management. Worksheets and procedures are supplied for daily routines, homework collection, and teaching students to plan long-term projects, manage open-ended tasks, control temper, and organize schoolwork. About 50 pages of reproducible classroom forms, checklists, assessment tools, and planning sheets are included, along with concept summary charts, sample scripts, and vignettes. This second edition reflects current advances in the field over the past six years, with a new chapter on integrating executive skills with the response-to-intervention model, and a new chapter on managing transitions to a new grade or school. There is also increased attention to the problems of children who don't have a specific diagnosed learning disorder but still struggle in school.
