What is Executive Functioning?
Executive Functioning (EF) skills are skills we use every single day, but often don’t realize we are using them. For example, when you make your lunch in the morning, you are planning a meal for later in the day. When you sit quietly in class or at work, you are exhibiting self-control. Most of our daily activities can be tied back to executive functioning in some way.
