🌟 Executive Functioning Skills Matter!
Executive functioning skills help with learning, planning, staying organized, managing emotions, paying attention, and adapting to change. Many individuals with autism need extra support building these skills — and that’s okay.

🧠 Key Areas of Executive Function:
• Working Memory – remembering and using new information
• Mental Flexibility – shifting thinking and adapting
• Self-Control – managing impulses and staying focused

🏥 Medical factors like seizures, nutrient deficiencies, or blood sugar issues can also impact these skills.

🏫 How to Support Growth:
• Get an assessment to identify strengths and needs
• Work with your child’s IEP team on goals and accommodations
• Model and practice skills at home through daily routines

💡 Strengthening executive functioning can make everyday tasks — at home, school, and beyond — more manageable and successful.
