The Middle 8: How you can support strong student habits beyond the classroom

Providing students with strong instructional routines and habits is a key determinant of success, but how can you make sure that these structures exist when students are not in school? Using research on effective executive functioning skills, Novella Prep founder Dr. Tony Di Giacomo will lead a session on how families can support the middle 8 hours – the time when students are off-campus, out of school (the first 8), and not asleep (the final 8). Families will explore ways to improve home-school connections to help build better routines and skill sets beyond the classroom walls. We hope you will register and join us!
