Have you read the adorable book Scaredy Squirrel by Melanie Watts? We love to use this book at the beginning of the year to get all of our fears out in the open of the "unknown". Students can be very apprehensive about a new class and a new teacher, and this is the perfect book to show them that everyone has fears!
