Video: Autism teaching tools, understanding high functioning autism

Penta Burks


This video was made in the fall of 2004 when Evy was going into the 1st grade. It was made by his parents as an introduction to his new teachers so they would understand him. All his teachers adored him. And while he has his struggles, like other children with autism, he is pure and guileless. There is an innocence in his eyes and soul that help him connect to people, and stop them from judging him.
