Buddy reading in action! 📚❤️
Recently, Ms. Prentice’s 3rd graders spent time reading with our Kindergarten students, while our 5th graders shared stories with second grade. These special reading partnerships give our younger students extra opportunities to enjoy books while allowing our older students to practice leadership, confidence, and kindness.
