Article: [senco-forum] draw a man test

Hello Dolina
  The score is in the Aston Index among others.  I can find it tomorrow and scan the scoring system in if no-one else can find it for you.
  I use it a lot.  Often, I do it as part of lessons ('Draw the Pied Piper', 'Draw the convict' etc) and score it.  The drawing can show you immaturity.  It can also show you how a child perceives themselves, like the girl who was a wheelchair user and drew all her people with not legs.

  Does anyone have the details on this test? I recently came across some drawing by one of my pupils receiving literacy support. I was very surprised and alarmed at the immaturity of his drawing. I wondered if the test would support or shed any light on his literacy difficulties.

Thanks
Dolina
