Finally, an easy-to-use screening tool that helps teachers and therapists work together to identify children in preschool who may have sensory processing issues.

A screening:
I was disappointed by this book as it is primarily checklists for my teachers to fill out. I'm sure I'll come up with a good use for it. It also has some good basic descriptions of each sensory system and how to explain them to teachers but I'm a bit passed that. I was hoping for more of an assessment than a screening, must have missed that in the description. It would be a good tool to have if you are new to OT. FYI The sample forms in the book have "sample form" in bold across them.
