I sent information about Wings of Epoh to my principal last spring, and she was very excited about it. I know from experience that children need help learning how to understand those with differences. Children with autism spectrum disorders are as diverse as any group of children you will meet, and their challenges can be scary to young children. As they get older, children who are considered "different" often become the target of hurtful comments, exclusion, etc. Helping children understand and support one another is crucial to our communities. Thank you for this resource! I am hoping to use this program in my classroom this year. I sent information about Wings of Epoh to my principal last spring, and she was very excited about it.
