Executive functions (EF) are crucial to regulating learning and are predictors of emerging mathematics. However, interventions that leverage EF to improve mathematics remain poorly understood. 193 four-year-olds (mean age = 3 years; 11 months pre-intervention; 111 female, 69% White) were assessed 5 months apart, with 103 children randomised to an…

Giving practitioners a voice is essential in developing intervention programs that are adapted to educator and child needs. We aimed to do so by involving educators in the codesign of an intervention supporting early mathematical and executive development, to maximize feasibility and implementation quality. N = 100 educators, N = 24 Early Years…
