[quote=Anonymous]There's a book called "All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome" that our school counselor uses to talk to classes about kids with AS. It may look a little babyish but as an adult, I find it amusing and the kid-friendly language is helpful. I'm a teacher and I applaud the steps you are taking. It's important for kids to be able to advocate for themselves and for that they must know what they need. I've had kids tell me they don't like it when the schedule changes or they don't like to be touched, and knowing these things allows me to create a more comfortable learning environment for them. It's also helpful in building a classroom community if other students understand how to communicate with a student with special needs and a book like this helps start a dialogue. I think giving it a name or diagnosis depends on the age but it sounds like you are doing everything right. [/quote]
