POWERFUL STRATEGIES

To Help Children Develop Independent Executive Function Skills

Thursday, February 12, 2026

Executive function (EF) skills are the mental skills children use to pay attention, organize and plan, begin tasks, and stay focused.

EF skills impact students at home, at school, and in social situations. They are important for all students and especially critical for children and teens with ADHD.

Springer Learning Center is proud to partner with Cincinnati Children’s to welcome nationally known expert Sarah Ward, M.S., CCC-SLP, who will share proven, practical ways to help your child develop life-changing EF skills.

In Sarah Ward's presentation, Powerful Strategies to Help Children Develop Executive Function Skills, parents and educators will learn easy, practical strategies to help children manage time, stay organized, and build independence.

This session offers tools to support task initiation, smooth transitions, emotional regulation, and reduced reliance on adult prompts—at home and in school.

Sarah Ward, M.S., CCC-SLP is Co-Director of Cognitive Connections, LLP, and co-creator of the Get Ready*Do*Done method, used widely to strengthen planning and organization skills in children and teens.
