"All Children can Learn." Let's start the school year by understanding our Students who are learning while on the Autism Spectrum, specifically, thosewith Aspergers Syndrome.
This is an excerpt from 'Autism Learning Felt'.
Many parents with children that have Aspergers know that there are going to be problems that arise having their children in a mainstream school. But are those problems a product of the child or of the system? Schooling so often these days is like a cookie cutter factory. Those that fall above or below the norm just have to fit in. This is a reason that many parents choose to homeschool. They can teach their child in the way their child learns best. With a guided curriculum toward a auditory, visual or kinesthetic education, the parents approach to teaching becomes more efficient for the child to learn.
