Yоu аre wоrking in аn оutpаtient pediatric setting, and receive a physician order to evaluate and treat a 10 year old boy with Down syndrome. Because of his diagnosis and attributes related to his diagnosis, you suspect he may have fine motor and coordination delays affecting his independence with self-care skills. You will need to complete a norm-referenced assessment in order to show a delay of 1.5 standard deviations below the mean (z score -1.5), and feel a motor assessment may be helpful. However, you remember that the motor assessments are not always occupation-based and want to also use a tool to help you identify occupations that may be affected by his fine motor and coordination delays. Which of the following assessments would assist you in identifying occupations that are impacted by his functioning?
