Visual-motor integration difficulties can foreshadow learning problems

• Visual-Motor (sensory) Integration
• Ages 6-0 through 18-11
• Individual/Group Admin.
• Norm-Referenced
• Testing/Scoring Time: 25 minutes

The THS-R is an untimed, clinical assessment of neurosensory integration skills evident in handwriting (both manuscript and cursive) that are often disrupted in students with learning difficulties. The THS-R provides standardized assessment of children's handwriting ability for both manuscript and cursive styles that can be used with any of the popular handwriting programs (such as Palmer, Zaner-Bloser, D'Nealian). The THS-R is not a classroom assessment of penmanship.

Results of the THS-R can be used to:

• identify neurosensory integration problems
• monitor progress of students with disabilities
• determine if neurosensory integration difficulties are contributing to students' learning problems
• guide instructional or rehabilitation practices

• abbreviated administration procedures
