An effective collection of worksheets, activities, tools, and resources for the parents and teachers of young people with ADHD

The Executive Function Playbook in Action: Activities and Strategies to Support Kids with ADHD is the ultimate hands-on guide for parents and educators working with students to improve their executive function skills. Instead of focusing exclusively on external strategies, this companion workbook to The Executive Function Playbook takes a groundbreaking approach that shows parents and practitioners how to help young people build self-regulation, self-motivation, and independence.

The resources contained in this workbook help parents and educators walk students through the steps they can take to improve their planning, organization, and time management abilities. They'll learn how to complete tasks independently and reduce their reliance on frequent external prompts and interventions to help them get things done.

The Executive Function Playbook in Action is focused on long-term success, helping anyone who works with young people with ADHD build on initial accomplishments to generate lasting improvements to executive function skills.

Inside the book:



Step-by-step instructions for parents and professionals who need to plan lessons, group work, and individual student work
Student assessment and self-assessment tools that highlight progress and identify specific areas for improvement
Practical, evidence-based exercises covering self-awareness, self-regulation, self-motivation, self-evaluation, social executive function, screentime, and verbal and non-verbal working memory
Chapters on authoritative parenting, college success, and strategies for common “failure to launch” setbacks

Filled with practical resources for adults working with youth with ADHD, The Executive Function Playbook in Action is an invaluable collection of worksheets, activities, strategies, and walkthroughs designed to make a concrete difference in the lives of young people with ADHD and the people who work with and care for them.
