Executive Function Skills in Action is a practical, research-informed toolkit designed to empower educators to teach executive function skills in a way that is engaging, accessible, and impactful.
The resource offers 12 ready-to-go session plans and activity sheets tailored for children aged 8–16, with extension ideas and suggestions for how new skills can be further developed at home. Each session targets a specific executive function domain, such as memory, task initiation, emotional regulation, and time management, providing clear scripts, fun games, and actionable strategies. Learners will be able to develop their own personalised toolkit, equipping them to navigate academic challenges and build independence, resilience, and self-advocacy.
Grounded in real-world classroom experience and aligned with current neuroscience research, Executive Function Skills in Action celebrates the unique profiles of all learners. Whether you’re a primary or secondary teacher, teaching assistant, SENCO, or speech and language therapist, this resource will help you unlock lifelong skills that empower learners to succeed both in school and beyond.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
