Original PromptI need a 60 minute exercise for a 7th grader and today is his first day at a new school and in the 7th grade. He needs to improve his executive functioning skills and I want to teach him strategies and how to apply them. He is diagnosed with ADHD and ODD.

'Locker Mastery: My Personal Success Center' is designed to help students effectively organize their locker materials, create a daily schedule, and identify personal strengths for a successful start at a new school. It emphasizes the importance of organization in reducing stress and improving control over one’s day. Students learn to create a locker map, categorize items into different zones, and develop a daily checklist of essential materials. The resource also includes techniques for managing transitions between classes and strategies for overcoming potential sticking points in their day. Moreover, it encourages self-reflection on daily wins and challenges, cultivates personal strengths, and sets goals for the upcoming week.
