A IS FOR AUTISM, F IS FOR FRIEND
theenglishteacher on June 14th, 2009
I am dedicating this to my youngest son Sammy who is 18 and suffers from autism. It might help both children and adults to understand what autism really is and how it effects the autistic person (in this case a child). Narrated innocently by a child with easy colourful images to follow via this YouTube video, it really appealed to me so I hope it does for you too.

Insightful and sensitive video - thank you for sharing.
Aniya,
This is a very beautiful video and quite well done. My exboyfriend and I would often take care of his nephew who had autism. The child was very bright and learning how to interact with him brought us great joy! However, if I was never taught about his unique learning abilities I may never have learned about his personality and talents.
It is wonderful that you are dedicated to teaching people how to do this. In this way, they will also find a treasure.
Hi! I came across your blog on Teacher Online. I am a part time college-level writing instructor AND I have a kid with Autism (Mr. Busypants is 6; I write about him at http://mamabusypants.blogspot.com.)
Looking forward to following what you have to say about teaching.
