This week saw teams 1 and 5 joining together in a new partnership. Big Buddies will be tutoring their little buddies in the classroom once a week. Our kickoff activity was an icebreaker. Buddies drew chalk outlines of each other. As they worked together to decorate their pictures, they had a chance to talk, and get acquainted. It was a chance for the older and younger students to get to know each other a little better and forge a bond. They will also continue to get together as a group once per month and the The Big / Little Buddies Program will continue throughout the the 2009 / 2010 school year. As you can see by the pictures below, everyone seemed to be having a very enjoyable time!
