Review: A must for today's differentiated classroom - Entering the phrase "executive functioning" on Google resulted in 2,780,000 hits today. Any phrase with that many hits has to be included when addressing student difficulty in the classroom! The authors are very clear in stating that executive skills are not addressed in the traditional intelligence/achievement test batteries. This cluster of skills include planning/directing behavior, working memory, sustained attention, and goal-directed persistence to name only a few. Dawson and Guare include chapters on the neurological working of the brain, methods of assessing executive functioning, linking assessment to intervention (both with individual students and with a class), coaching, implementing strategies within an RTI framework, and diagnosed populations. The chapter on transitions, either between classes or schools, is also very useful. The concern in this book is on addressing symptoms/behaviors which may be interfering with a student's success. While useful to a wide population of adults wishing to implement a positive change in a student, it must be remembered that behavioral checklists provide only one source of information for a very complex set of skills. The use of published, standardized behavior checklists are discussed as an adjunct to the material covered in this book. This revised book will prove to be a very useful reference for those responsible for recommending and/or implementing strategies for struggling students. Review: Very useful resource - This is a very useful resource for working with parents, teachers and students. It helps to identify students' STRENGTHS as well as weaknesses. When a student and I go through the questionnaire and then I say, "It looks like you are really good at..." the student is surprised and is much more accepting of, "And it looks like you could use some help with..." The book also offers specific ways to help students develop some of the skills in which they may be weaker. This is my favorite book for working with students who haven't been very successful at school. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #419,439 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #80 in Child Psychiatry #441 in Medical Child Psychology #605 in Popular Child Psychology | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 140 Reviews | ## Images ![Executive Skills in Children and Adolescents, Second Edition: A Practical Guide to Assessment and Intervention (The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81d9jLrGjbL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must for today's differentiated classroom *by K***K on August 3, 2010* Entering the phrase "executive functioning" on Google resulted in 2,780,000 hits today.

It helps to identify students' STRENGTHS as well as weaknesses.

This is my favorite book for working with students who haven't been very successful at school. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for educators, counselors and parents *by J***. on June 4, 2015* Was suggested to us for at home. Is really more geared toward schools, but so many of the things can help parents at home. This is the best written suggestions I have seen. If you don't have executive skill problems, it is difficult to know how to help those who do. And this takes a more step by step approach. This was great! Educators and counselors and parents all should have a copy. --- ## 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.tn/products/1705588-executive-skills-in-children-and-adolescents-second-edition-a-practical](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1705588-executive-skills-in-children-and-adolescents-second-edition-a-practical) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
