Abstract:

Juan is an autistic boy about to start school, and the thought is giving him the jitters; he copes by concentrating on routine things and clapping, but he is worried about being laughed at in school--but his teacher has come up with a series of math games and made Juan the judge, to help him cope with his anxiety about the new situation.
