Buddy Time

Everyday after lunch we have "Buddy Time"

Our Y4/5 buddies from Room 13 and Room 10 help us with our reading, sight words, spelling and letters.

We build our reading mileage by re-reading the book that we read with the teacher in the morning. 

Our buddies work from a checklist that is specifically tailored to each child. The checklist might look something like this...

When reading talk about what happened in the beginning, middle and end of the story.
