Breakdowns in KSPT match the levels of treatment in the K-SLP Treatment Kits, allowing for a seamless transition to therapy. Ages: 2;0 – 5;11. Admin time: 5-15 minutes. -
Kaufman Kit 1 teaches children to combine consonants and vowels to form words while controlling for oral-motor difficulty.

The SSI uses a client-centered interview to assist the occupational therapist in intervention planning. The SSI considers the student's occupational performance in all environments in which she or he assumes the student role, including the classroom, playground, gymnasium, corridors and fieldtrips. Therapists are given the opportunity to analyze the steps needed to implement accommodations based on the student's perceived needs. The SSI is a semi-structured interview designed to assess student-environment fit and identify the need for accommodations for students with disabilities in the school setting. The SSI helps identify gaps between accommodations the student is currently using and what accommodations and assistive technology may be needed to facilitate effective occupational performance. This assessment is to be used collaboratively with the student and is therefore intended for students who are able to communicate their feelings.
