I know that this probably won't help you by Monday, but here is a list of great resources for parents.
http://www.parentbooks.ca/pdfs/Autism_Classroom_Resources.pdf
If you search the document for "classmates" a number of very good books and videos are listed. I don't recall the age of your child but I'm sure you can find something appropriate. If you have time to pick up "All cats have Asperger's" that is also a possibility. I haven't read it myself but I frequently see it recommended to teach young children. Maybe you could read it to the class. The general message you and the school want to send is that we should be accepting of people's differences and everyone has things they are good at and not so good at. Good luck!

I didn't chime in earlier because I didn't have any intelligent suggestions.


I do want to wish you guys the best of luck though. I really hope Jeremy's teachers classmates and are kind to him and he has a good day.


I will be thinking of you guys tomorrow.
