Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: Repeating the name of an object after 510 minutes is assessing recent memory. Asking the child to repeat his address is assessing remote memory. Listening to speech articulation and pointing to body parts both assess communication skills.

Answer to Question 2

This is great. Thanks
