Educators clamor to provide top-notch lessons and resources for
students, but if students lack executive function, even the best
materials won't produce the desired results. If students haven't
developed the brain-based skills to focus, catch and correct
errors, identify cause-and-effect relationships, and more, they
can't make sense of lessons. Executive function is the missing link
to student achievement. But how can you develop this in the
classroom? In this new book, bestselling author Nancy Sulla has the
answers. She explains how building executive function requires a
combination of activities, structures, and teacher facilitation
strategies aimed at six increasingly complex life skills that
should be the goal of any school: conscious control, engagement,
collaboration, empowerment, efficacy, and leadership. She also
offers a variety of examples, activities, and structures fit for
every grade level and subject area. With the book's practical
strategies and tools, you will be inspired, armed, and ready to
establish a clear framework for building executive function in all
your students.
How do we prepare students to become problem-finders, innovators,
and entrepreneurs who can thrive in a global society? The Common
Core charts a pathway to success, yet we know that checking off
each standard one by one will not achieve the kind of results we
want. This powerful book by bestselling author Nancy Sulla has the
answers. She explains how teachers can bring students to deeper
levels of learning by shifting from the what to the how of the
CCSS. She offers seven insights that you can use to teach the
standards in a more meaningful way, to bring all of your students
to true understanding and application. You'll uncover how to...
Incorporate ends-based teaching to ensure that the instructional
focus is on the ultimate goal of each standard and not just on the
basic skills; Encourage grappling with content through structured
techniques such as problem-based learning, questioning, and
simulations; Use cognitive progression, by understanding how the
brain learns, to produce real results. Harness the power of
language in all disciplines, not just in English language arts;
Build executive function in the brain rather than focusing on
academic function alone; Increase retention by using learning and
practice activities in different ways and by differentiating
instruction; and Become a true facilitator, not just a responder to
students' questions. Throughout the book, you'll find a variety of
practical examples from across the curriculum, as well as "Your
Turn" opportunities to help you try the ideas in your own
classroom. The future may not be easily defined, but it can be
shaped by teachers who are right now preparing the next generation
of world citizens.
