[CASL-L] Supporting Autistic Students in a K-4 Library

[Jenny Lussier]

Hi Jessica and Margarida - I would be interested in exploring this too. I
work with lots of kids like that in our PreK program as well as when they
move up in the grades.

I have a resource from AASL 2019 which I've been looking at.

But if there are more people interested, we can find someone to meet with
us.

Let me know and we can work on that.

Jenny
