How do I assess a student who is non-verbal, in a wheelchair, and struggles with their fine motor skills? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) One way you could assess this student is by having them respond with head movements for yes and no. You’d ask yes or no questions so that they could respond in that format!
