*/Description:/*
After a long day at school, even the most organized and capable
students may find themselves challenged to initiate, organize, and
self-regulate the homework process. Parents face the daunting task of
providing just right supports, while attempting to determine which
supports and strategies will actually help their children succeed.
Students can become successful Homework Project Managers by developing
and using consistent, self-guided processes that allow them to
complete homework independently and efficiently. During this
presentation we will review one effective model useful for students of
all ages. We will also discuss specific strategies embedded in the
model and explore how parents can develop and nurture their
children’s executive functioning skills.

Carla is a certified speech-language pathologist with extensive
experience working with school-age students.
