OT Screening - And the Research Continues
The school started Brandon's Occupational Therapy Screening and sent the report home yesterday. They noted that he is able to cut but has problems holding the pencil. Not sure I understand all they noted. One thing in the reports states: "Brandon appears to have difficulties with sensory processing which may be influencing his ability to attend to tasks, grasping his pencil for writing tasks & to write with adequate pencil pressure." OK this is a new one. I guess I'm back in research again. I wonder is this is more of the Dyspraxia coming into play. I guess I will find out later. The recommendation is for Further Assessment: "Sensory Profile and informal assessment of fine motor dexterity skills for classroom & self-care tasks."
If anyone understands this, I would appreciate comments.
