FISH contains (a) an assessment instrument that can assist the professional in determining goals for future educational or developmental training programs for a person with developmental disabilities and (b) sample lesson plans for each item evaluated. If used for pretraining or follow-up skills assessment, this material may be helpful in evaluating the effectiveness of an educational or rehabilitation program in providing clear accountability for teaching efforts. Although targeted toward people with developmental disabilities, this program would also be beneficial for children in the early grade levels or anyone with cognitive deficits, school age through adult. It is a criterion-referenced series of tasks. The assessment instrument and lessons are organized according to seven domains: Adaptive, Behavior Skills, Affective (or Emotional) Skills, Cognitive Skills, Sensorimotor Skills, Social Skills, Speech and Language Skills, and Vocational Skills. Completion of this instrument should result in a list of skills that the person can perform independently.
