"Executive functioning skills don’t always fall into a curriculum, so they are sometimes missed. As a result, students go out into the world either learning the skills themselves or struggling through life without them. To help prevent this, I’m rounding up some engaging Ted Talks to be used in the classroom to help teach some of these much-needed skills."
