Greetings:

I have a child who has been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. Age 10 and going to 6th grade. His special interest has always been math. As is sometimes with the syndrome he can remember and calculate numbers better than the average folk. He is forever seeking information about math concepts: reptiles, irrational numbers, primes, sequences like fibernacci.

I, on the other hand, run from numbers. I am social workie counseling empathetic whiz.  I have learned to appreciate the "beauty" of prime numbers among other things, but this little guy needs some outlets that may bring him into social situations with like minds. He is in all of the GT programs that the school provides but hates all but math and science.

This summer we have found a tutor to have math "conversation" with my son. The tutor appeared a little out of element at first-- I mean, tutors are mostly for those with problems... So far this experiment appears to be going well. Each time they meet, I am truly amazed at the intelligent questions my son brings to the sessions. The tutor seems to be enjoying having a willing pupil. 

I am really out of my element. Anyone have any ideas about things to steer him to at school or perhaps at local universities? We don't have a ton of money to spend on this, however I really would like to let him follow his passions while opening up his world.

Creative ideas or definately welcome!
