Why are transitions, including going
back-to-school, so hard on the brain?
The hallmark of a successful back-to-school season for students is strong Executive Function skills, which help them excel by equipping them with a curious-to-learn attitude, a learner-explorer mindset, goal-focused behaviors, and problem solving independence. But transitions can pose an especially difficult challenge, and few more so than the back-to-school transition.
Kids need ample support to overcome the barriers that arise as they prepare to return to school, and mastery of Executive Function is the way to get there. Learn more about the value and importance of teaching students Executive Function!
