Executive Functioning
Executive functioning is a category of skills focusing on organization, word finding, and memory. An SLP may work on:
Task initiation, following directions, and task completion
Time management, organization, and self-regulation
Working memory
Problem solving and accepting change
There are other professionals who can target these skills as well, such as an Occupational Therapist or a special education teacher. An SLP may not be on your student's team if these skills are already being taught by someone else to avoid duplicating services.
