I think I caught most things. changes are enclosed in asterisks (*) and my comments are in brackets ([ ])

• In the 1940s, a man named Hans Asperger noticed that a group of very intelligent boys did not behave like other children. After studying them, Asperger *deduced* that they must have a developmental disorder.



The main treatments *are:*
• *therapy*
• Social skills training to help children with social interaction [this is a very awkward sentence. Is there maybe a more formal term for "social skills training"]
• Cognitive behavioral therapy, a type of “talk” therapy that helps children to manage their emotions better.
• Medication, for depression and anxiety
Physical therapy, for children with *sensory problems or clumsiness*
• Specialized speech/language therapy, to help children with speech [again, a little awkward especially because you used speech twice in the same sentence. again, is there an official term you can use?]
• Special training for parents to teach behavioral techniques to use at home

There are also upsides to Asperger's. Those with Asperger's are usually:

• Very honest and hard working
• Intelligent and *have good memorization skills*
• Loving
