Other idea of day

Sometimes when doing an assessment you have to calculate the child's age EXACTLY and it can be a brain-challenger. I know there is a formula and I plan to re-learn it, but when you are feeling truly brain-dead, try this!

It's an age calculator for assessments done by Pearson. Caveat, I have not tried this yet but I presume it is accurate. :) If it tells you the kid is like 89, probably you should double-check the math.

Hi Karen!

I LOVE your blog! It has so much valuable and interseing information. I am going to be starting an OT program this May at Nova Southeastern University. I read your section, "tips for incoming MOT students" and I was wondering if you have any more advice after being done with school and being able to look back at the whole process?
