Learning with Autism

Autism affects 1 in 94 boys. Parents of children with autism are faced with many challenges, including deciding on a plan for their child's education. Some parents are looking at inclusive education as an option, which pairs typically developing children with autistic children. One teacher mentions the major switch in thinking is usually children prepare for going into a class, but in this situation, the class must prepare for the child with autism. This is a great article from the Washington Times that discusses how important inclusive education can be for children on the spectrum.
