DVD Understanding Elementary School Classmates Who Think Differently

This DVD features interviews with students who describe how their neurological conditions make them think and act differently.  They talk about how they are treated -- and how they want to be treated.  INTRICATE MINDS III helps classmates accept and support others they may have been inclined to ignore or tease.  It's applicable to a range of conditions such as High Functioning Autism, Asperger Syndrome, Semantic-Pragmatic Disorder, Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder and more. This program is similar to INTRICATE MINDS II: Understanding Classmates with Asperger Syndrome, but includes some different narration and additional interviews that cover additional conditions.  If you have questions about which DVD is right for you, please call us at 336-608-4224.
