Executive Functioning can be tough for gifted and especially multi-exceptional students. Good executive functioning requires a stable Limbic System that may not always be present due to the commonality of asynchronous development in this population. As such, as both parents and educators we must fill in those gaps and teach our children executive functioning skills as soon as possible. This is not easy given the intensity of this population. This presentation will address what executive functioning is and the skills needed to succeed in this area, the challenges faced by both children and their parents in understanding the atypical neurodevelopment of this population, address the delay in executive functionality, and discuss measures for teaching our children these skills. Remember, it is never too late to assist our kids to navigate the challenges of life.

Come learn ways to understand and manage the joys and challenges common in gifted and twice exceptional children (and adults!).

"Giftedness is not what you do or how hard you work. It is who you are. You think differently. You experience life intensely. You care about injustice. You seek meaning. You appreciate and strive for the exquisite. You are painfully sensitive. You are extremely complex. You cherish integrity. Your truth-telling has gotten you in trouble.  Should 98% of the population find you odd, seek the company of those who love you just the way you are. You are not broken. You do not need to be fixed. You are utterly fascinating. Trust yourself!"

- Linda Silverman

Carol Lewis (she/her) was on the GEAC board for a bazillion years while supporting her two twice exceptional children through their LWSD experiences and beyond.   She has been certified by SENG (Supporting the Emotional Needs of the Gifted) to facilitate SENG Community Groups and is a trained mindfulness teacher.
