Brain Heroes for Group 3/4

Brain Heroes for group 3-4

Meet Effi and Furon, the Brain Heroes from Brain Hero Planet. These heroes teach your students how to strengthen their Brain Powers. For example, the power to stay focused on a task, the power to delay a reaction, or the power to deal with changes.

Sustained attention, flexibility, goal-oriented perseverance, emotion regulation, planning, and metacognition are some of the executive functions or regulatory functions of our brain. These are the functions we need to control our behavior. Executive functions are crucial for your (school) success. It is therefore good to explicitly pay attention to them. Brain Heroes is a twenty-week program, with which you will work thoughtfully on executive functions in your group. The executive functions have been translated into ten Brain Powers. For each power, you will find playful activities and tips to strengthen that function. The authors also provide insight into the theory behind executive functions.

Brain Heroes is also available for group 1-2, group 5-6, and group 7-8. It doesn't matter if your students are already familiar with Brain Heroes, as this is taken into account in the book. By implementing the Brain Heroes program throughout the primary school, you ensure a continuous line in strengthening executive functions.

In addition to the manuals, resources are also available, including the Brain Heroes sticker pack and Brain Heroes posters for the classroom.
