The Impact of Brain Development on Behavior & the Ability to Learn
Does your child struggle with behavioral, academic, sensory or emotional challenges? We all know that children develop skills individually and that each child is different and unique. However, every human being’s brain develops in a particular order, a sequence of development. In this workshop, we will discuss The Developmental Sequence and the behavioral, emotional, and academic functions that are related to our first years of life. We will also discuss simple activities you can incorporate into your daily homeschool routine to encourage healthy brain growth.
