SKILLS FOR THE 21st Century
Executive functioning skills are critical for the 21st century. These skills require practice. We often focus on the 3 R’s in our schools. At Acton, we track how our learners are progressing on skills beyond their 3 R’s.
Learners at Acton work on team projects every day. Projects at Acton require our learners to use and practice their executive functioning skills to complete their work.
ACTON ACADEMY STUDENTS DEVELOP EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING SKILLS THROUGH DAILY PRACTICE.
