How to Identify Your or Your Child's Strengths & Weaknesses

Occupational Therapists (OTs) at Oasis Place work with individual of all ages to help them learn and master everyday activities from children's play skills, getting dressed, bathing and cooking-to an adult being organised in their workplace.

Here's What Your Child Will Learn

 
 
 
 
  • How to strengthen skills for everyday activities such as cooking a meal or getting ready for school or work by breaking down tasks into their smaller, more manageable, parts for them to practice and master. 
  • How to mininise anxiety caused by sensory environments such as touch, taste, sound, light or social interactions.
  • How to build executive skills such as planning, organisation, time management, working memory, response inhibition, and managing emotions and thoughts in order to function effectively.

Here is What You or Your Child Will Be Assessed

  • Cognitive ability

Cognitive assessment helps to look into one's potential. Consists of 5 main areas: Verbal Comprehension, Visual-spatial, Fluid Reasoning, Working Memory and Processing Speed.

  • Achievement / Learning Performance

To look into one’s present level of academic achievement. This includes Reading, Writing, Math and Oral Language. 

  • Social-emotional

Typically, rating scales can be given to multiple informants (parents, teachers and self-report). 

  • Behavior (accessed by interview, observation & rating scales)  

This may include play, pattern of interest, routine or rituals, motor movement and sensory behavior.

  • Attention (interview, observation & rating scales)
  • Adaptive functioning (interview, observation, rating scales, checklist & task analysis) 

This includes communication, daily living skills, socialization and motor skills.

These assessments will help in better understanding the individual’s learning profile, as well as to guide the planning of support strategies for one’s education and intervention. 


Information may also include classroom observations, analyses of work, questionnaires, curriculum-based assessments and standardised assessment tools. A full assessment may take 4 to 6 hours that can be divided in two or more sessions. The findings of the assessment will be compiled into a detailed report and shared with the parent/caregiver or the client within two weeks. Some of the standardised assessments that the psychology team administers include cognitive tests (WISC, WPPSI, WAIS, Leiter), achievement/learning test (WIAT), autism diagnosis (ADOS2, 3Di, CARS), ADHD diagnosis (Conners) and adaptive functioning (Vineland).
