Educators, would you like to have a presentation for your students around differences? Teaching kids about autism will help them better understand their classmates who might appear odd, or different. The Autism Society of Maine is offering to send an Autism Information Specialist to your school and present to your class, second grade through eighth grade.
There will be a short video, activities for the students and time for discussion. Depending on the grade level the presentation can be anywhere from 30 minutes to 45 minutes.
ASM will provide all the materials: How We Fit Together Activity with a box of crayons for each student, interactive activities, What’s Up with Nick book, Activity Booklet for students, Certificate of Friendship and fidget toys.
Reach out to ASM infospec@asmonline.org or call 1-800-273-5200 and ask for “Kits for Kids”.
