Wild for Winnie

Winnie is the new kid at school and sometimes she's kind of wild. "Maybe Winnie feels the world differently than most of us," her teacher says. "Why don't we give her world a try?" So the class takes time each day to do an activity that reflects what Winnie's feeling.

Description

New student Winnie has sensory processing challenges, but her wonderful teacher knows just how to make sure she's a welcome part of the class. New student Winnie has sensory processing challenges, but her wonderful teacher knows just how to make sure she's a welcome part of the class. Winnie is the new kid at school, and sometimes she acts kind of wild. Her teacher says to her classmates, "Maybe Winnie feels the world differently than most of us. Why don't we give her world a try?" So that week, when Winnie can't stop monkeying around, the class joins her on the jungle gym. And when she's acting squirrelly, they all go nuts on an obstacle course. When Winnie is being a bit of a bear, the whole class burrows into a cozy den for storytime. Soon, with the guidance of their loving teacher, Winnie's classmates realize that sometimes we all feel the world differently, and that's more than okay.
