Meltzer bases this book on scientific studies which goes one step closer to the neuroeducation model which is bringing findings in the laboratory and classroom together. It is stated in the book that some of the information has been validated in controlled studies, some on research in classroom and have been used effectively in the educational therapy setting. Much of the information came from the Institute for Learning and Development (ILD) and ResearchILD which appears to combine the research/training model discussed by other authors. Besides the excellent overview on understanding, assessing and teaching executive function processes, the constructs of goal setting, planning, prioritizing, organization, remembering, problem-solving and self-monitoring/self-checking form the chapters that comprise this book. There are suggestions on methods to teach EF separately or incorporating it in classes of math, reading, or writing. The reproducibles can be used in the classroom or with individual students. I found it easy to relate to this book because of the large number of references to experimental designs which lend credence to the efficacy of the recommended techniques. While part of the title includes "What works for special-needs learners", all schools and educators need to become familiar with the concepts discussed on these pages. Thank you Dr. Meltzer!! Review: Good book for all educators - This book is really good to have as a tool in your classroom. It gives some great suggestions on how to strenghten students executive functioning skills. Even students who have not been identified for special education might have some executive functioning problems which will affect their learning in many ways. This book will help guide you through making simple adaptations and modifications to give every student an opportunity to do their best. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #268,911 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #45 in Child Psychiatry #192 in Educational Psychology (Books) #446 in Popular Child Psychology | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (63) | | Dimensions | 7.75 x 0.75 x 10.25 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | ISBN-10 | 1606236164 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1606236161 | | Item Weight | 1.25 pounds | | Language | English | | Part of series | What Works for Special-Needs Learners | | Print length | 252 pages | | Publication date | March 23, 2010 | | Publisher | The Guilford Press | ## Images ![Promoting Executive Function in the Classroom (What Works for Special-Needs Learners) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/818tyA6RKSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The importance of executive functioning and its relationship to education can no longer be ignored! *by K***K on October 1, 2010* The author(s) are able to take the research in the field and present it in a fashion that can be immediately applied in the classroom.

It gives some great suggestions on how to strenghten students executive functioning skills. Even students who have not been identified for special education might have some executive functioning problems which will affect their learning in many ways. This book will help guide you through making simple adaptations and modifications to give every student an opportunity to do their best. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ this book shows to parents there is help for their children and teaches the techers how help the students. *by M***R on June 27, 2013* This book is good for me because I learn about deficit of executive functions and I can explain to my son's teachers that my child needs help (as this book shows examples and good results) and he is not lazy. I showed parts of this books to them. They had to changed their negative position about him and they gave more help to him. ## Frequently Bought Together - Promoting Executive Function in the Classroom (What Works for Special-Needs Learners) - Strategy Instruction for Students with Learning Disabilities (What Works for Special-Needs Learners) - Lost at School: Why Our Kids with Behavioral Challenges are Falling Through the Cracks and How We Can Help Them --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/8071802-promoting-executive-function-in-the-classroom-what-works-for-special](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/8071802-promoting-executive-function-in-the-classroom-what-works-for-special) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
