Travelling teddy bear

Our class bear is called Boofle. He was given to me by my year 6 students on my final placement when I was training to be a teacher.

Most teachers have a travelling teddy and I thought it would be nice to do the same.

 

I added a small letter "from Boofle" of course, giving instructions with what to do with him. 🐶

I think this is definitely a good idea, especially for younger children as it encourages writing for a purpose and introduces the idea of letter writing, journal entries and autobiography writing. All these examples they will learn further along in he school, but its a great idea to start them off!
