Executive Functioning Skills Checklist for Middle School: A Comprehensive Tool for Special Education Professionals

This checklist provides special education professionals and behavior specialists with the tools to assess and support middle school students across 12 key executive functioning areas. Each section includes age-appropriate subskills, targeted interventions, and sample goals specifically tailored for IEP, FBA, and BIP plans at this level. From managing time effectively to controlling impulses in challenging social situations, this checklist empowers educators to guide students toward academic success and independence.

What Problem Does This Solve?
Middle school students face new challenges as they transition to a more demanding academic and social environment. For students with executive functioning deficits, these challenges can impact organization, emotional regulation, task persistence, and more. This checklist helps educators pinpoint specific skill deficits and provides actionable steps to support students in achieving independence and building effective executive functioning habits.

This checklist is ideal for teachers, specialists, and support staff working with middle school students who struggle in one or more executive functioning areas. Whether you’re working on IEP goals, conducting an FBA, or designing a BIP, this tool offers a clear framework to assess executive functioning skills, determine where support is needed, and set achievable goals that foster growth and resilience in middle school students.

Time-Saving Solution
With a focus on middle school-level interventions and goals, this checklist allows educators to save time by providing structured, ready-to-use goals and interventions. Instead of developing interventions and goals from scratch, teachers can use this checklist to quickly identify, implement, and progress monitor interventions, freeing up time to focus on direct student support.
