Kindergarten/5th Grade Buddies
The kindergarten has some very special friends on campus-- the 5th graders! The first time we met, some of us were a little nervous because they looked so big. But during journal time later, many were writing "I love (buddy's name)!" We absolutely adore having a big buddy, and give them warm hugs whenever we see them around campus.
During one of our meetings, the 5th graders interviewed us. The next time we met, they read stories they had written about us, incorporating the information from our interview. We were thrilled to be the main character in their story!
Next month we will be walking to a care home located about a block away from MPI. Talk about a "cross-age" activity!
