The teachers in the classroom are always really excited to incorporate something the children can relate with into the classroom. All young children enjoy reading, hearing, and looking at stories written with bears as the characters. All young children that I know have at least one teddy bear. Teddy bears are very special and significant to young children. If the teacher gave the children the opportunity to bring their teddy bear to school they would be extremely excited.
Children find a sense of security in a teddy bear.
When they are upset, distraught, or frightened they look to a teddy bear, if they do not have a grown-up nearby. There are many children s books written with teddy bears as the characters. My annotated bibliography only includes a few of the numerous books about this subject. The books come in all different genres in order to expose the children to all types of literature. The Berenstain Bears series involves many problems which can be talked about in school.
