When students have attention deficit their brain's executive functioning is off? Do you know as a teacher you are able to help these and all of your students improve their executive functioning? This information is from Dr. Donna Wilson and Marcus Conyers called Brain Based Learning which has been posted on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest, published September 12, 2016.
Teachers need to explain some students have good brains which act like the head of the company, a coach of a team or the drum major leading the band. Their brain can tell them what to do, what is due when, and what might the possible consequences be for possible actions. BUT students who are lacking this!!!
These students are:
impulsive
move too much
have trouble following directions
can start work,
can't plan work or behavior
can't stay focused
can't keep in memory what they need to learn
cognitive flexibility which means to adjust one's thinking based on new information
