The World Needs All Kinds of Minds


In honor of Autism Awareness month, I am sharing this You Tube video depicting famous people whom many believe had autism based on historical records about their life.  The range of their contributions clearly illustrate these quotes by Temple Grandin:
    
"The world needs all kinds of minds." 

"I am different, not less."

"We need to be developing kids' strengths."

"Light It Up Blue" Thanks to a gift from one of our preschoolers, the display case in our school lobby will feature blue lights during the month of April.  Blue lights are a reminder to us all to spread kindness, awareness, and understanding about autism.
