How Did You Miss That?: A Story Teaching Self-Monitoring (Executive Function)

These books are great for students who struggle with executive functioning skills. The books gives a list of how to deal with each executive functioning skill. It has supplemental information at the end of each book. The book gives good kid examples with a lot of examples taking place in school along with home settings. I recommend these books by Bryan Smith. They are very relatable to kids and I think they would benefit from learning the strategies discussed in the books. I do have several of his books. Good for kids with ASD and SOCIAL SKILL DEFICITS..

This is a great series of books for teaching Executive Functioning Skills to elementary school kids. I'm an early childhood therapist and director of Early Childhood Wellness Place where we use many of these books--very helpful!

I love all of this writers books my little guy can be a little extra these have really helped us channel all that extra energy into positive forward steps helping us all to be more mindful when responding to different situations!

Great book on teaching kids about self-monitoring. My son is starting to understand finally! Examples at home and at school.

Very appropriate for older kids!

Braden has a list of things to do before bed, and he’s sure he accomplished everything in record time. But when his mom checks his work, she shows him all the things he didn’t do. How could he have missed them all? Then his mom shares a four-step process to self-monitoring to be sure he doesn’t make the same mistake again.At school a few days later, Braden is reminded of this problem when he misses a whole page on a test. His teacher goes over the process with him again, and this time he’s sure he’ll remember. He soon has opportunities to share his learning with his younger brother, and even with his parents!Self-monitoring is an important skill for kids who want to live successful and productive lives. It helps them identify what they want to accomplish, stay focused, double-check everything, and ask for assistance when they need it. How Did You Miss That? shows kids these steps in action and also provides tips for parents and educators. I highly recommend it.Reviewer: Alice Berger

This is a cute book and very relatable for kids. But I did not realize how thin it is. I should’ve read the description better. This is 30 pages with very little content on the pages. This is more like a supplement you would receive from your doctor for free.
