Come join us for a session on developing Kindergarten Readiness and improving behavior in young children. Explore the profound benefits of Kindergarten readiness and gain insights into innovative teaching approaches and optimal learning environments.  This session will examine executive brain function, components imperative for healthy brain development, and the pivotal role of executive functioning in laying the groundwork for success in K-12 education. Help your youngest learners thrive and be ready to excel on Kindergarten Readiness screeners and the state K-2 ATLAS Assessments. We’ll share data collected from over 1,000 preschoolers participating in an Executive Function-focused Early Childhood program implemented in high-minority, economically disadvantaged urban school districts. As student’s executive functioning scores increased, they also showed positive impacts on early literacy, numeracy, and mathematical thinking skills.
