TITLE
Dr. Meg explains how autism appears differently in people. Learn about the strengths children with autism have.
Some children with autism work with more than one teacher in schools. They have a classroom teacher, but they may also have a special education teacher. Special education teachers help change material children in the classroom are using into material that is easier for the child with autism to learn from. Sometimes, they take their students outside the classroom.
