Executive Function and the Writing Process: Generating and Organizing Ideas
October 26, 2023 | 12:00 PM - America/Detroit
Executive Function and the Writing Process
This webinar will provide a general overview of how executive functioning impacts written expression in struggling learners. Educators will learn strategies to support students who get "stuck" when engaging in writing tasks so they can better generate and organize writing ideas. These tools are designed to empower students to "get started" with confidence and learn to write independently
