Under Construction: Choose a Form + Score the SWYC

The form selector and milestones calculator serves two useful functions:

  • Calculate which age-specific SWYC form to use for a particular child (given the date of administration, the child’s DOB, and weeks premature if applicable)
  • Find out whether a child’s milestones score is above or below the scoring threshold (given the date of administration, the child’s DOB, weeks premature if applicable, and the total raw milestones score) 

    This SWYC scoring cheat sheet includes a brief version of scoring instructions on one piece of paper, back and front. Keep it on hand for quick reference!

    This narrated PowerPoint explains the process of calculating age by hand or using the SWYC form and milestones calculator.  Audio narration accompanies each slide (note: audio will not work if you open this file in Google Slides).
