5 L

Reading alone does not provide enough information. They will require verbal instructions for less complex steps. For more complex steps requiring problem solving, they will require a demonstration.

In order to form the correct mental image of what they need to do to arrange the triangles on the fabric and Heat n' Bond materials, they will require a few demonstrations.

The person can follow a demonstration of cutting a triangle piece using the template, pealing the paper backing on the Heat n' Bond and ironing the pieces into place.

Storing an image in short-term memory is indicated by studying the sample and never or rarely referring to it later (requires more observations). While colouring, their movements are fluid and continuous.

Organising a method of colouring requires the recognition of adjacent triangles that are the same colour. Colouring across triangle lines in red and yellow is observed.

Use Design C from the copying activity to confirm or rule out ACL 5.0.

Score

The tentative score is ACL 5.0.

Completes the design with consistent spacing.

The spaces between tiles are spatial properties.

If they noticed the spacing after being cued, try the maple leaf activity.

Score

The tentative score is ACL 5.4.

Copies this design without consistent spacing.

They do not mix up the green, purple or blue colours.

Try the peanut butter or shading activity to differentiate between ACL 5.0 and 5.2.

Score

The tentative score is ACL 5.2.

They see the pattern and stop looking at the sample. Spacing is inconsistent.

When using Design D, they may mix up the green, purple or blue colours. The picture above shows one possibility of mixing the colours up.

This is a surface appearance error.

Score

The tentative score is ACL 5.0.

Completes the design by referring to the sample less than seven times. They see the pattern and stop looking at the sample.

Score

The tentative score is ACL 5.0.

The ability to store an image in their short-term memory results in the person making a picture without the need to refer to the sample each time they place a piece. They can place the pieces in the same pattern as the sample.

You will need to confirm ACL 5 Low with another activity, such as Design C from the copying activity or the Kite activity. Your observations of the person's pattern of performance doing ADLs and IADLs will also help to either confirm or rule out ACL 5 Low.
