Get started
The BrainTracks Executive Function training package starts with a review of teachers’ goals and needs. The program kicks off by showing teachers exactly why teaching with students’ executive function skills in mind allows students to perform their best – and for teachers to have productive and enjoyable classes.
The two subsequent teacher workshops show teachers how to implement tools and strategies, which they can immediately use in their classrooms. BrainTracks also provides a workshop for parents so they can support their children at home, whether in academic or other areas, beyond the classroom. Additionally, BrainTracks offers continued weekly teacher support to assist in the ongoing implementation of what they’ve learned.

7 Early Signs of ADHD in Toddlers and Young Children: A Guide for Educators
As educators of very young children, we are not strangers to big emotions, distractibility, and high energy in our classrooms. If we consider brain development, we know that young children’s executive function skills are still very much emerging and this contributes to much of what we see in our classrooms. But, there may be some children that stand out for you. Children whose behavior is maybe more extreme than others or who have a harder time following directions or remembering where things go.
Impulsive Behavior in the Classroom: Strategies and Approaches for Educators
The phrase “impulse control” might conjure up images of trying to resist the new items in the dollar section at Target or the candy in the grocery check-out line. The consequences of lack of impulse control in these situations aren’t usually too detrimental and may just result in some post-purchase regret. Impulse control in the classroom is a different story. Resisting impulsivity is important for productivity, relationship management, and safety.
