### Using TPBA2 to Assess Young Children Through Play

Dr. Toni Linder presents **Transdisciplinary Play-Based Assessment, Second Edition** (TPBA2) and shows professionals how to use TPBA2 to thoroughly assess any child’s developmental level, learning style, temperament, motivation, and interaction pattern in four domains: cognitive, social-emotional, communication and language, and sensorimotor. Attendees will learn how to use TPBA2 with children from infancy through age 6 on either an ongoing or yearly basis. The seminar addresses facilitation strategies such as establishing trust, imitating behavior, following children’s leads, promoting optimal levels of behavior, and transferring assessment information onto TPBA forms. Participants will also learn a team approach and strategies for including caregivers before, during, and after the assessment to improve parent–professional communication. Video footage illustrates how the TPBA2 process can be used with children of different ages and abilities in different settings.

### Who will benefit from this seminar?

Special educators, psychologists, speech-language pathologists and therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, early intervention specialists
