Mrs. Keeble’s 6th grade class enjoys participating in a reading program with the Kindergarten class. The reading buddies program helps model good reading and students improve their skills. The older students gain the opportunity to develop fluency as well as a sense of pride in their accomplishments. In addition, they often come to see the value and love of reading as well as gaining self-esteem. Kindergarteners build a relationship with the older students and improve their reading skills as well.
