The scary moment in the third-grade classroom happened just days after the school year started.
A Wisconsin teacher is crediting her maternal instincts for saving one of her students when he started choking during snack time.
Samantha Wais said the school had just wrapped up a welcome-back assembly and her students were enjoying a snack when Bryson, the student, started choking on an almond. "One of my students started walking towards me, and as he got closer, he was making gurgling noises, and then I noticed when he looked up at me, his face was very panicked," she said to FOX Television Stations.
Wais said her educational assistant grabbed water for Bryson as nurses and other adults were being called. She said Bryson is now okay.
