Executive Functioning

There are so many things happening in this last couple months at school, I need to practice my executive functioning!  If you or your kid is struggling to get to school on time, or keep track of notices, homework, etc. then check out this great article!

Ms. Husdon, our resource teacher, also recommended a great tutor to help kids with executive function challenges.  Claudia Smith from Compass Clinic specializes in developing all aspects of executive functioning.   Who knew?! 

Also, we are still working on developing our math fact automaticity.  We started the year with only one student (William!) who met expectations for math fact fluency.  We now have 6!  Many of the grade 7 students are only a fact or two away, but the majority of our grade 6 students (with the exception of Kiyara!) are not even close.  Now is a great time to buckle down and strengthen those facts.  The grade 7s can start high school with their fact tool box full, and the grade 6s can start grade 7 without any math fact barriers.  5 minutes a day is all you need!
