Bumble Bee Katlego

Tolerance

In modern-day Johannesburg, Katlego, a curious 7-year-old boy with blue glasses, faces challenges in school due to his curiosity and ADHD. With the help of his friend Sihle and some creative strategies, Katlego learns the value of tolerance and finds ways to focus and succeed.

Katlego raced around his room, buzzing with energy. His mom called him her 'bubbly bee' with a warm smile. Katlego loved learning new things, but sometimes his curiosity got him into trouble. Today, he had a tough time in school and couldn't focus on his work. Miss Dlamini even put his name on the noise-makers list.

At school, Katlego tried to concentrate, but it was hard. He got distracted by a blue bird outside the window. Miss Dlamini frowned and called his name sternly. Katlego felt bad for not finishing his sums. He wished he could focus better.

During break, Katlego met his friend Sihle. They raced each other on the playground, laughing and teasing. But in class, they both fidgeted and struggled to pay attention. Sihle told Katlego about ADHD and how it made focusing hard.

Katlego felt overwhelmed and thought about giving up. He sat under a tree, feeling sad. Sihle joined him and explained some coping strategies. They talked about deep breathing and treating homework like a treasure hunt.

Katlego ran up to his mom after school, excitedly telling her about Sihle's ideas. His mom listened with a warm smile and encouraged him to try them. Katlego felt hopeful and ready to give it another shot.

The next day, Katlego and Sihle stood together, ready to face a new day. They high-fived each other with big smiles. In class, they practiced their Focus Plan, doing deep breaths and checking off tasks. The classroom felt calm and orderly. Katlego felt proud and focused.
