Range of Motion (ROM) is the potential movement a joint can move in various directions or planes.
It can be active (AROM): Movement is performed by the individual. It can be passive (PROM): Movement is applied outside of the individual. For the purpose of adapting Alive Activities, it will be assumed that the OT will use clinical judgement in the type of ROM. Unless otherwise stated, the activity can be implemented using both AROM and PROM.

Muscle strength is a muscle’s capacity to exert force against resistance. Endurance refers to the ability to perform a specific muscular action for a prolonged period of time.

Response to Intervention
Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-tier approach to the early identification and support of students with learning and behavior needs.
Struggling learners are provided with interventions at increasing levels of intensity to accelerate their rate of learning.
RTI is designed for use when making decisions in both general education and special education, creating a well-integrated system of instruction and intervention guided by child outcome data.
I am eager to see OTPs as well as other related service providers successfully integrate into tiered intervention. I am committed to providing resources for Tiers 1 and 2 for educators and related service providers.
