Light Up Your Lobes:

Reading, Non-verbal LD, and Executive Functioning

This two-day conference begins with Dr. Jane Bernstein discussing reading and the brain from a neuropsychological viewpoint: Brains Don’t Work In A Vacuum: Developmental Neuropsychology, Learning, and Teaching, with focus on strategies for parents and educators.  Friday evening our exciting social event features the exhibitors and sponsors.

Saturday morning, Dr. Bernstein will continue with a focus on non-verbal learning disabilities, NVLD? One or many?

Following is Dr. Cheryl Chase-Carmichael, a clinical psychologist, presenting Executive Functions: What are they, why are they important, and how can I help?

The overall focus will be on stimulating, i.e., "lighting up", our thinking and creative processes, thus enabling us as educators and parents better understand the relevant issues related to learning and develop take-home strategies that will be immediately useful to them in dealing with their students. 

Our exhibits also strive toward this same goal.
