Buddy Reading

Today we start buddy reading with our buddy class in the junior school. For most of us, this is the first time we have been the older buddy. We have come up with a list of things we must remember:

• let your buddy have a turn too
• be kind and patient with them
• listen to your buddy, not your friends
• treat your buddy with respect
• teach them words they don't know
• don't be bossy
• give them a chance to choose books too
• be responsible - you are the role model

We're looking forward to making new friends!
