Buddy Time

Every Thursday this year, the second grade class will be meeting with their seventh grade buddies to do an activity. In the past, these buddy activities have really brought the kids together and friendships have bloomed. Last week, the students met their buddies for the first time and read to them. Afterwards, they drew an illustration of their favorite part of the story. The seventh graders are real leaders and helped the second graders feel comfortable. This year's buddy group is really special to me because the current seventh graders were the first second grade class that I taught here at St. Sylvester School!
