Build Independence with Executive Functioning Skills: A 24-Week Bundle for Real Growth

Helping students strengthen their executive functioning skills can feel overwhelming — especially when you’re balancing so many needs at once.


That’s why I created the Executive Functioning Skills Bundle — a structured, practical resource designed to build real-world independence over time.

Why Executive Functioning Matters

Executive functioning skills are the foundation for school success, social relationships, and future independence.
When students struggle with organization, planning, self-control, or emotional regulation, it often shows up as missing assignments, big emotions, or difficulty finishing tasks.

With explicit practice and supportive strategies, students can learn to manage their time, organize their work, plan ahead, and bounce back from challenges.

What’s Inside the Bundle

This 24-week bundle offers scaffolded, easy-to-use activities focused on real-world skills, including:

  • Organization: Keeping track of materials, supplies, and assignments

  • Planning: Breaking down long-term tasks into manageable steps

  • Task Initiation: Overcoming procrastination and getting started

  • Self-Monitoring and Self-Control: Recognizing emotions and managing impulses

  • Working Memory: Retaining and applying information

  • Adaptive Thinking: Handling unexpected changes with flexibility

Each category includes hands-on activities, real-life scenarios, and discussion questions that build deeper understanding over time.

How to Use It

You can weave these activities into:

  • Resource room sessions

  • Executive functioning groups

  • 1:1 intervention

  • Morning meeting routines

  • RTI/MTSS support time

  • Homeschool skill building

✨ Bonus: Each section is print-and-go — no complicated prep required!

Why I Created This Bundle

As a special education teacher, I needed activities that were meaningful, accessible, and focused on real-world executive functioning skills, not just theory.
This bundle pulls together years of strategies that actually worked for my students — structured enough to provide support, but flexible enough to meet kids where they are.

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking for an easy, effective way to help students strengthen their executive functioning and independence over time, this bundle is for you.
