    A lot of the time, within the school setting, a finger gets pointed at sensory issues, but it also gets pointed at behavior. In my level II, my CI has been challenging me to see if I can tell the difference between behavior and sensory within our caseload and it's been tricky; so, I found this link and found it very helpful for me to distinguish the difference.

    As everyone knows, when we are practicing, we have to attend CEU's to keep our license up-to-date. The link I posted above gives a list of the upcoming CEU's within Ohio. On the left hand side of the website, there is a drop down menu where you can change the state, the date, the hours, etc.

    Today, at my level II placement, my CI explained to me the difference between benchmark goals and objective goals when writing a child's IEP. Prior to her explanation, I had never heard of/known the difference between the two; therefore, I think posting this PDF will help those who are interested in being a school-based therapist.

    Article: http://www.spioworks.com/files/Jackman_Effectiveness-of-hand.pdf

    The article I posted above is a meta-analysis study that dives into the idea of the effectiveness of splinting for children with CP. A "friend" - as we call them - on our caseload has CP and they have been using a velcro splint with her on her L hand and the friend constantly takes her splint off. We are diving into looking at using a plastic splint rather than a velcro one and I thought this journal article did a nice job explaining the benefits and effectiveness of splinting for a child with CP.

    The link I posted above discusses the benefits of jumping on a trampoline. A lot of the children we see on our caseload begin their therapy treatment session by bouncing on a trampoline while singing their ABC's; so, I found this article appropriate to better explain why jumping on a trampoline is actually beneficial.

    The video I posted above was created by MOT students that are discussing how to properly perform the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales (PDMS-2) Assessment. Since I primarily work with preschool aged children in my level II placement, I found this video super helpful, because it is our go-to assessment.
