As a middle school teacher, I've become more and more aware that many of my students seem to fall on the "spectrum." Whether I'm just more aware of these kids or whether there are actually more of them -- well, I'll leave that to the experts. But I know I need more insight into how kids with Asperger's think and see the world, and this book is a great help.
ASPERGER'S RULES lays out the challenges of everyday life, academic and social, for the kid with Asperger's, and provides practical, useful, effective strategies and scripts for dealing with them. Most importantly, Blythe Grossberg provides interpretation and translation of the unspoken and inferred rules of life as well. By shedding light on the emotional reasons for these rules, she gives them purpose and meaning, and doesn't simply expect an Asperger's kid to parrot words without understanding. This book will help kids express the appreciation and affection that they feel but don't know how to express.
Some chapters in the book are "Teachers and Asking for Help"; "The Unwritten Rules of the Classroom" (including body language); "Other Situations in School" (such as dealing with recess, lunch and gym); and "Healthy Habits" (including expectations for hygiene).
We teachers expect that a seventh grader doesn't need to be told, "It's important to speak with your teachers in polite ways that show you appreciate them", especially when so many of our Asperger students are otherwise so smart and don't miss a trick! But Grossberg doesn't take for granted that a student with Asperger's will realize that importance or know how to pull it off. She'll explain what those polite ways actually are, and what a student can and should say in all the situations at school that really matter.
