Hello everyone!! I am a social worker in Greece with not so much experience in special education, but so willing to explore this fascinating world and improve my proffessional skills. I am working as an assistant teacher with an autistic little boy and moreover i am doing my master in Inclussive Education. I am trully interested in learning as much as possible about Asperger syndrome. In fact, my assignment's project at the time is Asperger syndrome and learning difficulties. Since Asperger is a field not so widely researched (especially here in Greece), i am struggling to gain as much information about it as i can. Any kind of help would be received as the most valuable gift (recommendation of books, articles, websites etc).
It would be a pleasure contacting with anyone who feels like sharing their precious knowledge. Sincere thanks!!!

P.S. For any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks again!

Hi! I am an art teacher also a mom. My son, who is six, was diagnosed last summer. I just want to express that it is a joy for me to have aspie kids in my classroom. The student I have now far surpasses my NT students in creativity and skill. I see the same potential in my son. Thinking about the world as they do, makes it easier for them to become creative problem solvers. Teachers and parents, I would love to hear your stories about your children and art. I would also like to see pictures!

Hi. I'm Frances, also a special educator, and I'm new here. :) I came across the group while finding resources - not for my AS student - but for my husband. :) I am totally convinced that my hubby has it, after one of my students was diagnosed of having asperger's instead of SLD.
