Kids with executive functioning issues often have trouble keeping track of schoolwork and staying organized. They might forget to write down assignments, lose homework, and struggle to follow directions. You can learn more about executive functioning from our Quick Guide.
If you notice signs like these in your child, check with their teacher to see if the challenges show up at school as well. If there is a pattern, a neuropsychological evaluation can reveal what’s causing the issues and suggest strategies for helping your child succeed.
