Practicing executive function can be fun with this Self-Monitoring Executive Function Game. Includes scenarios, ideas for strategies, and practice executive functioning skills! Play as a game with the included game board and question cards about self-monitoring.
How we target Self-Monitoring looks like: Build self-awareness, keep track of self (check-ins), self-knowledge of strengths, preferences, challenges, and needs, and check status with project or activity.
Objective: Students will learn about and practice self-monitoring as an executive functioning skill through a hands-on game.
