Building Working Memory Skills

Building Working Memory Skills

Working Memory is one of the most important cognitive skills for every child to master. This “memory-in-action” is what gives kids the ability to remember the rules of a game while they are playing it, or recall instructions from a teacher while completing an assignment. Children who have trouble with their Working Memory skills will often have difficulty remembering their teachers’ instructions, recalling the rules to a game, or completing other tasks that involve actively calling up important information.

In this series of four live, online workshop sessions, your child will build Working Memory skills with brain training games and activities, while learning about some practical, useful technologies that can help them support their working memory needs at school.
