While I appreciate the spirit of democracy, I hope you don't contour your opinions to placate those with extreme views.

It is a difficult transition going from elementary school, where kids are more tolerant, to middle school.

The dry textbook info was helpful in identifying Aspergers by classroom behaviors, but not much more. Your book helped me understand my students and appreciate what they bring to my classroom. I have taught a young man for 2 years in my writing class, this coming year he will be in my 2nd grade homeroom-regular ed. class not special ed. He is so you!-fortunately with great parent support. Daily I laugh or cry regarding his classroom antics. Young children are so tolerant and his peers see him as a very smart classmate who can be very outspoken at times.<br />He is a very loved child by all who come in contact with him. I look forward to reading your new book!!!TeacherK12https://www.blogger.com/profile/03763311697663481817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5751271189667675662.post-40909082773490905852009-07-29T18:09:48.553-04:002009-07-29T18:09:48.553-04:00Can't wait to read your new book. :)Can't wait to read your new book. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03411258404667293080noreply@blogger.com
