This set of 3 core cognitive skills allows you to set goals, plan, organize, focus attention, regulate emotions, and monitor your own behavior to complete tasks.

  1. Working memory

    the ability to hold and manipulate information in your mind

  2. Inhibitory control

    The self-control required to filter distractions, resist impulses, and stop yourself from acting on immediate feelings.

  3. Cognitive flexibility

    The capacity to think creatively, adapt to sudden changes, and shift between different tasks or viewpoints.

    At our school, we work actively on those 3 skills every single day.

    Before age 5, the child's brain is growing faster than it ever will again. By practicing these skills now through tailored exercises and routines, we give our children the ultimate toolkit for life.
