Rodney's typical morning appears to require him to get up and ready for school in time for the school bus. This entails several things: he must get up on time; he must get himself dressed and ready; he must have his breakfast; he must have his backpack packed and ready with everything as well before the bus arrives. Definitely planning and organization are a huge requirement each morning for Rodney. He must also be focused and paying attention to the time in order to not miss the bus again. Rodney could benefit from a checklist so he does not miss anything needed in the morning. Organizing his things for the morning would be helpful as well. This could be laying out his clothes and shoes and placing his packed backpack by the door ready to go for morning. Additionally, he could benefit from a schedule so he could keep himself on track and on time for the bus.

Rodney struggles with remembering where he put things and staying on task in the morning. He could benefit from having a specific place his backpack goes, visual aids like a checklist and an alarm that could go off whenit is time to go to the bus. He needs to work on being more scheduled to help him plan out his time efficiently. He needs to get enough rest, and can, if he has a scheduled time he starts his homework, and writes his homework down in a planner at school. This will help his executive function skills as he will be more orderly and can control his feelings.

Rodney's executive deficits when it comes to organization, task initiation, memory, and impulse control could all impair his ability to successfully complete his morning routine. He needs to wake up on time, avoid distractions, remember his backpack, homework, and other supplies for the day, eat breakfast, get dressed, and catch the bus, all of which require multiple executive function capabilities.

Rodney has a hard time organizing, transitioning from one thing to another and arranging tasks, which are all related to impulse control. He needs an alarm clock to get him up on time, a schedule of tacks to complete in the morning, a designated spot for his homework/backpack and an alarm for the bus.

A typical morning for Rodney requires him to have the skills of executive functioning. He struggles with time management, organization, muscle memory. motor memory, and impulse control. Rodney needs to be able to have visual ques, alarms, detailed notes to help him remember the sequence of his morning. From the time he gets up he struggles with managing his time, forgetting important things for his day, and his muscle memory. He needs visual ques to help remind his brain what he needs to be successful. When he is struggling with organization, sequencing, and muscle memory it will trigger him to feel disregulated and off. He needs support to help him learn skills to stay regulated.

Executive function is defined as the skills and abilities needed to perform certain tasks that involve planning, sequencing, and management among other things
Rodney has all type of difficulties in his daily routine in life including school life .

Rodney's typical morning routine seems to involve a lack of organization and preparation for the time. He often forgets where his items needed for school are placed, and gets stressed out as the time to leave for the bus. A morning checklist would be useful for Rodney to ensure that he has every material he will need for his school day, as well as a designated location that he can place all of his school related materials so that he knows where everything is without having to search the entire house .Adult need to help him to make reminder for his each activities and home work so he can do everything time to time. Morning alarm can helps him to wake up on time and that way he can't face hassle in the morning . This type of few things helps him to make his life better without stress.

Rodney often gets stressed and hassled in the morning because he has trouble planning things he has to do before getting to school. He has trouble with routine things like eating breakfast, packing his homework, packing a lunch, and finding his backpack. Adults and parents can help Rodney with this problem by providing a visual schedule full of reminders placed somewhere in the house or his room where he can easily see and follow along. This will help him stay on track and get all the things he needs to do done.

It looks like things are piling up for Rodney and its start from the begging of the day or sometime from before by not getting a good night sleep. It will take Rodney and someone else to help him organized and get some tools. Often when you have a executive function disorder you need others to have that roll in your like until you mature enough and get familiar with strategies that help you improve. The first thing would be to be aware so that Rodney will appreciate the help. From personal experience I think this is something that also affects self-esteem, so by figure out Rodney's strength we can empower him and use them to help the functions that he is lacking on.

Rodney Struggles so much in his daily life due to EFD. Is is sort of a round robin effect with what he does effects everything during the day. The lack of sleep starts the day with troubling effects from the start. He needs to have a list, structure, and timers to help him guide him through his daily tasks. A good role model and person to remind him of things would also be effective, I think.

Rodney needs to plan his morning routine and remember to follow the steps but any glitch along the way throws all the other steps off. He needs to organize and remember the routine tasks like dressing and the less routine tasks like taking a special project with him. A checklist would help him remember items originally but may not if he does something like set his backpack down. He may have to deal with impulse control if he has trouble continuing his routine through distractions like a silly dog or lost book. It seems like he will have to replace some internal function with external cues and so much adult input. A schedule of tasks and a visual checklist may help along with more time to accomplish tasks. It's just so hard because one just keeps getting further and further behind because of the struggle which causes the next issue.

Rodney has a typical morning schedule but struggles due to his difficulty with organization and working memory. He needs to get himself ready without issues with distraction (impulse control) and task initiation. He must gather his phone and backpack and get to the bus on time. Visual checklists and a schedule (externally organizing) would help him as would reminders and more sleep. He needs a place where he always puts his things. This is the cycle kids get into with these issues.

Rodney needs an adult to help him set up routines and supports through a checklist, timers, etc during his morning routine. He needs a specific location for doing homework, and a routine of putting homework in his backpack as soon as he's finished with it. In the morning a checklist of eat breakfast, brush teeth, get dressed, pack your backpack, and a picture of the time he needs to have each item finished by will help him get organized.

Rodney's mornings are difficult and stressful due to his lack of skills in planning and organizing, remembering past experiences and information, focusing, and transitioning. He could benefit from cues such as an alarm for waking up, and another one for leaving the house to catch the bus.In addition, having a daily planner for homework that needs to be completed would be helpful. A wipe board with "things to remember" 1. backpack 2. phone. 3 lunch. etc could make a big difference in a successful morning. Finally, his parents need to follow-up with his progress and hold him accountable for correcting his own behavior.

Rodney struggles with his mornings and depending on the night before, he may benefit from more sleep. As for his routine, he needs a checklist for what he should do in the morning and in the afternoon/evening. Verbal cues from his parents can help, though as as a parent, I know kids don’t always want to hear that. Without a plan or schedule it makes sense that he’s getting lost in his daily life.

Rodney is required to remember his work, phone, and prepare for school before he catches the bus every morning. Since one of his biggest challenges with executive function is organization and memory, It would be helpful for his mom to help him pack his backpack the night before. Repeating behaviors and keeping up a routine helps with memory. walking him through a day where he is guided and uses checklists to remember and organize things will definitely help him in the long run.

Rodney needs to sit down with an adult and come up with a morning routine and a list of strategies to complete his routine. He would benefit by using physical cues such as an alarm clock, a timer for possibly breakfast or washing up, sticky notes or pictures, designated places for his backpack and procedures like loading it the night before. All of these will help him with working memory and organization skills.

Getting off to a successful start in the morning requires Rodney's executive function skills. He needs to get up on time, dress, eat breakfast, get his backpack and homework and be at the bus stop on time.
The skills that are required for this are time management, organization, memory skills, prioritizing and organization. To help Rodney could use a check list of what he needs to do, visual cues such as what time he needs to do each activity or where he needs to put things. He needs to be rested in the morning. Preparing things for the next day such as putting his homework in his backpack and putting it by the door would be helpful.

Rodney needs to give himself some reminders to help keep him on track. A white board at home would help him with tasks he needs to do daily. He can check off everything he needs to get done and then mark it off each day. Homework can be tracked on a sheet kept in the front of his binder. He could make a list of things that he needs to get done in each subject and the due date. For his school work, the teacher may need to provide him with more time to complete a task or write material for him to copy at his desk rather than from the board.

Rodney needs alarms, a calender and/or a planner to write down all his assignments for the future and the week. also making a schedule and trying to stick with it is a good idea. make sure he stays focus and giving reminders also helps

Planners are great for school for someone with executive function problems. As someone who also suffers from executive function problems you can write down stuff into a calendar and plan out into the future. also setting alarms and reminders to get stuff done helps alot too. all of these tips can really help someone with these problems

Rodney's morning routine entails getting himself up and ready for school. He must wake up on time, get himself dressed, eat breakfast, brush his teeth and wait for the bus to arrive. The executive functions that effect him are panning and organizing, focusing and paying attention and transitioning from one task to the other. He could benefit by preparing the night before with showering, laying out his clothes, preparing his backpack, getting to sleep on time and setting an alarm. He could make a checklist of all that he needs to accomplish in the morning and set another alarm for when he needs to be ready for the bus.

Rodney struggles with routine and organization. He is responsible for completing his homework, putting his finished homework in his backpack, and then in the morning getting his backpack on and to the bus on time.

Rodney struggles in many areas. He has a hard time staying on task and doing homework even when he doesn't want to. Then because of this, his homework piles up and he cannot decide where to start. He ends up sleep deprived because he has to stay up late to finish required assignments.

Rodney has a hard time recalling where he has put things, such as his backpack and homework.

Executive function, is the needed skill to accomplish those tasks. Check lists, timers, and routine would all be beneficial. A checklist of what needs to be done, timers to remind him to start, and routine ... for example: one homework is done it immediately goes in his backpack. His backpack is always by the door following homework. Also, homework is always done at the same location, possible a desk or kitchen table.

If these tasks are difficult for him then he can develop checklist to remind him of what he needs in the morning as well as have designated places to put objects of importance. Also, the addition of a calendar for projects due as well as plans of actions would be helpful.

Consider a typical morning routine for Rodney. What does it usually entail and what skills, habits, or thought processes are necessary in order for him to complete the routine? How does Executive Function play a role? Discuss!

Rodney's typical routine in the morning includes getting ready for school and making it out to the bus on time with all of his stuff. He needs to be able to use his time appropriately to make sure he can gather things like his backpack, phone, and homework, as well as get something to eat and get on the bus. Executive function plays a huge role because he needs skills such as time management, working memory, organization, and self-regulation. Remembering where he put his stuff the day before is difficult for him, so placing his things in the same spot every time can be helpful. Using visual cues like a schedule on the wall with each thing he needs to accomplish would be helpful. Timers on his phone can give him reminders of what time it is so he is not late for the bus. All of these skills and habits will take a lot of practice, but will help him tremendously in his daily life.

Rodney's typical morning is getting ready for school and making to the bus stop on time.
By preparing himself the night before, having his cloths laid out, back pack ready to go with phone in it , homework in it and all objects put in same place the night before. This way he has already started his day off knowing he is organized and ready to head out the door after he is dressed and eaten a nutritious breakfast.
Having a bulletin board for visual cues on what he needs to do daily may be very helpful.

Rodneys morning routines are hectic due to his lack of executive functions including his lack of organization and memory. Rodney will benefit from a list or checklist to use in the mornings as well as sleeping more at night.

Rodney's morning routine requires executive functioning skills like organization to get everything ready he needs for school and time management so that he can make it to the bus on time.

Rodney's morning is very unorganized. I think a checklist would benefit him in the mornings, so that he won't forget anything and end up being late. It would save him time and stress. He also needs better time management.

Rodney would benefit from waking up earlier than usual, and start his morning routine by following steps written on a chart prepared the day before. By time, he will get better at finishing his task until it becomes a habit for him.

Rodney would greatly benefit from having a routine checklist to keep him organized, on task and on time. Having a specail place to keep him next day items that are put there the night before would really help with his morning routine. Having a reminder alarm set for five minutes before the bus arrives would give him the time he needs to organize his school bag and be out the door on time so that he doesn't miss his bus

Rodney is usually misplaced an item and he begins to worry about his bus pick up. In order for him to complete his routine he needs a list . Once it is written down he can check off what he has done.

Rodney's care giver needs to set up a daily check list for him. As he gets comfortable with a schedule, he will become more organized and the stress will be less.

Rodney's mornings require him to be able to get up in the morning, get dressed, make breakfast along with getting together his things for school to get to the school bus on time. Some things that would be helpful for him would be to get a good nights sleep, have a specific spot for him to store his backpack so he knows where to put it everyday . that way he's not having to lose time searching for it and he'll be able to have time to eat breakfast and not worry about missing the school bus. Some other things that would be helpful is taking better notes or asking his teacher for some help so he knows what's required for his assignments and not waiting until the last minute to do his homework that way he can get the rest he needs for school
