We are homeschooling our 13 year old son who has asperger's. Can anyone point me in the right direction to a good curriculum for him? We are in a small town so the choices here are really not geared towards a special needs child. I guess I'm looking for something that I could get online? something that would work for Max.

There was a thread about this not long ago. Ill post the link for you to a site that I think has an excellent curriculum. http://www.oakmeadow.com/index.php
They follow closely the Waldorf method if you are familiar with that. I have not used much of this curriculum but Ive used some books and supplies from them. If you want the entire program complete with teachers ect it can be pretty expensive but you can just purchase the curriculum or just buy some of the books and lesson plans.

Hi there, we also homeschool although our son is only 7. There's a great yahoo discussion group called sensory homeschool (assuming your son has sensory issues like most kids with AS) and if you join and ask this question there, you'll get lots of great suggestions.
