"Executive function is the brain’s air traffic controller, intercepting a tangle of thoughts and impulses and steering them toward safe, productive outcomes. Executive function allows children to improve their abilities to stay focused, plan ahead, regulate their emotions, and think flexibly and creatively."
Executive function remains one of the most reliable predictors of success in academics and in life, beating out test scores, IQ, and socioeconomic status.
