As usual our Wednesdays are filled with lots to do! We had a great day of art with Ms. Marjorie. The students learned how to make the number three into a butterfly. Mrs. Marjorie had them had their number three paper and had them paint on one side of the page. Then they folded the paper and smoothed the other side on top. They were amazed to open and see that the other side now had paint on it too! How cool is that?
Also THANK YOU to all the parents who sent in food for our Hungry Caterpillar Snack. The kids loved sampling the different fruits and cheese. Feel free to send in fruit with you child for snack if you would like! It makes for a great healthy snack.

Description:
There are so many people who tell us so many things about what we
ought to do or ought not to do for our children with autism and
autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
This talk will sort through how we decide what we do for our
children, and includes discussion of current important concepts of
Evidence Based Medicine to help families demand real informed
consent and have real parental choice in selecting interventions
for their children with ASDs.
