Today the OC participated in their first session of Reading Buddies with students from 1/2E. Reading Buddies is a great program where older students are paired with younger students for one-on-one reading time. The program not onlyย develops reading skills, it also enhances self confidence, academic performance and a love of reading.
Students enjoyed personally selecting books to enjoy with their buddies and will meet again next week.
What a lovely idea, and a great way to get the little guys into reading. I wonder if you would like to do this for Gus at home Noah? hmmmm
