“This school year, one of my students had a hard time not being able to take his teddy bear into school. It’s his comfort zone. So I told him he could leave him on the bus and I will keep him buckled in and watch over him while he’s in school. The first day he came onto the bus, I told him how Mr. Bear and I spent all day shopping and that I bought him a new pair of swim trunks. He was so excited that the next day he buckled up Mr. Bear and when he got onto the bus in the afternoon he said ‘What did you and Mr. Bear do today?!’ With excitement, I told him how we went to a water park and what we ate. Now everyday he looks forward to hearing about our adventures and does not have a hard time going into school and leaving him behind.”
