Abstract:
Children with a low Intelligence Quotient, between 85 and 70, have/face some difficulties in knowledge acquisition. One of the reasons of these difficulties are the executive functions. Therefore, the first step will be making a bibliographical research on the components of intelligence and intellectual disabilities in order to gather information required to select and elaborate activities to improve the executive functions. These activities will not be put into practice because of the time it takes to see a real improvement of executive functions. However, the activities will be validated by experts in this field, in order to see if it would result in the improvement of the executive functions in the subjects. I will also plan the steps that should be taken so that they could be implemented, such as the selection of samples, the structure of the sessions, the tools used to gather the information, the assessment, etc.
