Teaching without words: Learning tools for the nonverbal Autistic Mind : Learning Without Speech, Growing Without Limits: Tools for Nonverbal Autistics
What if the quietest students had the most to say-just not with speech? This book challenges everything we think we know about learning, language, and intelligence. It's not about finding a voice. It's about recognizing the voice that's already there, in movement, in art, in behavior, in silence. Teaching Without Words isn't just a guide; it's a revolution in how we see, support, and believe in nonverbal autistic minds.
I am Michael Edward, a husband, a father of six, a friend, and a self-proclaimed storyteller. I say storyteller because to use the word writer would be a misrepresentation, it might imply that I can write. I have always felt that my imagination was my strength and I always see everything as a movie. A lot of times when I write, its like I am sitting in a movie theater watching it on screen and I just write down what I see with the words that I know.
I love to write screenplays and that bleeds into my writing style. Also, I have epilepsy, and my seizures have increased, so if they bleed into the writing I apologize. I just want to tell entertaining stories that give people a chance to escape reality for a bit. I mean no disrespect to writers.
