Executive Function and Self-Regulation - Rethinking Early Childhood with guest speaker Dave Goodger, CEO of Eary Years Wales.

Executive function and self-regulation skills provide critical supports for learning and development. Just as an air traffic control system at a busy airport manages the arrivals and departures of many aircraft on multiple runways, executive function skills allow us to retain and work with information in our brains, focus our attention, filter distractions, and switch mental gears.

    The Session aims to cover:
    • Brains develop from the bottom up
    • Brains need bottom-top integration and left-right integration
    • How we can use play to intentionally promote executive function
    • Identify key themes and findings in the research on executive function
