Disclaimer: This module reviews tips and strategies that are used within school-based occupational therapy reports in the school district I used to work in. These suggestions should be reviewed by your district's special education department or legal team prior to implementing. Any references to literature, assessments, manuals, etc. are my interpretations only, and it is your responsibility to determine the applicability for your assessments moving forward. By continuing onto the next slides, you are acknowledging that I assume no responsibility or liability, in whole or in part, for your assessment reports.
