Because April is Autism Awareness month, I would like to share a personal experience related to autism.
This school year, I have had the privilege of teaching a child with autism, and it has been a profound year of discovery and growth for both of us.
My student's mother encouraged me to share our story.
When I discovered that I would be teaching a child with autism, I began to do some research on the Internet to learn more about the autistic child and techniques for reaching and teaching these children.
