		<description>I am commenting to let you know that I have awarded you the Brilliante Web Award.  Please come to the blog and pick up your award:

http://autismfamiily.blogspot.com/

You are listed as #5 in my listing of 7 blogs.  

Now on to my comment -

This is a wonderful series. Just the other day I was wondering if I suffer from Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and glad to see the other comment mentioning this as well.

This blog is written by a AT in NJ school district. She wrote about attending Closing the Gap conference.  It is a series that covers the exhibit hall, etc.

You two could team up for a book or joint venture.

		<description>Thanks S. Emerson and Nickie for your great suggestions. I had to stop writing this post at some point, so I love that my readers are adding to it. How long can we make this checklist?</description>

		<description>Great job on this post! I wanted to let you know that I really appreciate these posts, it&#039;s obvious that you&#039;re putting a lot of time and effort into these resources!

The one thing I would add is that with handouts, it is helpfu.l to have other formats besides large print. For example, I often work with the presenters at workshops to get electronic copies of their handouts, slides and other materials. It might be helpful to prepare presenters in advance so that they know that this may be a request made by participants. It&#039;s great for people who have reading challenges such as dyslexia or physical challenges with holding a handout. That is the only thing I can think of to add.

I am really enjoying this series, but I love your whole blog.</description>

		<description>Glenda,

Something to add to the list:

Anyone that watches &lt;a href=&quot;http://mattroloff.com/&quot; title=&quot;Roloff Farms Matt Amy Roloff&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;The Roloffs&lt;/a&gt; in Little People Big World on TLC will recognize Amy Roloff in the picture on this page.</description>

		<description>Thank you for this great check list! I appreciate your inclusion of promoting a scent-free practice. A good ventilation system with recently changed filters would be a plus as well for those with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity.</description>
