Sarah Ward returns to PSP Village
THE SESSION WILL BE RECORDED AND CAN BE ACCESSED FOR 30 DAYS
After our fabulous session last year Sarah returns to dig a little deeper in executive function skills.
Executive function challenges, processing speed and behaviour deficits often go hand-in-hand. Processing speed difficulties can limit productivity and executive function skills to complete routines; follow instructions; finish homework; listen/read and take notes/summarize; integrate and encode information; write assignments that require complex thoughts; transition between tasks; acquire new material; and reason under time demands. Slow PS can bog students down in the details and they can’t distinguish relevant from minor details and see the big picture. Learn practical strategies to improve processing speed to increase the automaticity with which students can follow routines and directions, complete tasks, and manage complex assignments.
1. Summarize the relationship between speed of information processing and executive function skills.
2. Describe five therapy interventions that use block and box schema training to improve a student’s schematic knowledge for following routines, making decisions, processing time, processing and responding to oral and written information and planning tasks.
3. Describe how to use visual processing and conditional reasoning schemas to quickly process figurative language.
The session will be recorded. Participants will have access for 30 days.
