MindQuest Groups
Coming October 2020

Anne is known for the groups and games she developed called, MindQuest. She has recently revised the format for online participation by groups of children or teens and parents to help improve executive functioning skills and cope with stress during the pandemic at home and with school life, however they attend school.

Groups for kids (and parents) offered by videoconferencing will begin in September 2020. There are three types of groups offered for kids and teens in grades 2-7.

MindQuest: Stepping Up to Challenges is an engaging and fun introduction to strategies for social, emotional and executive functioning skill improvements for gifted children in grades 2-3 and 4-5.

MindQuest: Game On! Intensive helps gifted children and parents set social, emotional and executive functioning improvement goals and supports the follow-up to accomplish those goals with the concepts of gaming to engage kids with fun.

MindQuest: Transitions is for gifted pre-teens and teens in grades 6-7 who will work together to accomplish goals to be more productive, calm and in control doing schoolwork or any non-preferred work they need to get done. The concepts of the psychology of gaming are used to increase engagement and retention of skills.
