Notice patterns in everyday experiences, yours or your child’s
Answer each statement about the person you have in mind, yourself or your child, thinking about the last few months. There are no wrong answers. This free questionnaire organizes observations; it is not a test, screening instrument, cognitive assessment, or diagnosis. Your answers save automatically, so you can stop and come back.

Your Fill Finder Pattern of Strengths and Weaknesses
This organizes what you reported into two honest halves: where things seem to flow easily, and where difficulty showed up and may be worth a closer look. It is a picture of your own observations, not a score and not a test.
About the motor questions: the answers suggest this person may work hard to get their thinking out through their hands. Motor skills are not one of the nine vessels. Consider discussing persistent concerns with a doctor or occupational therapist.
How to read this: ten everyday situations sit under each area. Answers are combined only to organize what was reported: where things seem to flow, and where difficulty shows up. These are discussion prompts, not scores, percentiles, or estimates of cognitive ability. Use the strengths to build on, and take the “closer look” areas to a Clarity Guide and a qualified professional.
Important boundary: The Fill Finder Questionnaire is an educational reflection tool based on self- or caregiver-reported observations. It has not been validated as a cognitive assessment and cannot measure cognitive abilities, diagnose a condition, predict performance, or determine special-education eligibility. Do not enter this Pattern of Strengths and Weaknesses into the Bucket and Barrel Individual Profile. That separate tool accepts only scores from a formal cognitive evaluation.
Use this with the Start Here guide to choose what to read next. If you share it with a school or support team, describe it as your own observations, not test results.
