Leaf Buddies

"The best thing we did with our buddies was to go outside this fall and collect leaves. Then, we came back to our classroom and made leaf rubbings and wrote poems about them." -- Jake Zielinski

I like spending time with my buddy, Austin. He is happy and perky all of the time. One day we made paper turkeys. I helped my buddy cut out and glue everything together. ...Cari Howard

Wreath Buddies

"I have enjoyed watching the students work together on a variety of artistic creations. To prepare for Christmas, the eighth grade class was invited to Mrs. N's room to help their buddies make Christmas wreath ornaments for their buddies to give to their parents for Christmas. With Christmas tunes playing in the background, our students worked quietly and cooperatively with one another, sharing stories of Christmas plans and Christmas wishes. It has been a wonderful experience for both of us involved --students and teachers -- to see the bonds that the students have with one another." --Mrs. McCarthy

Computer Buddies

"On the first day, we went outside and sat in a circle. Everyone took turns throwing a ball of string and saying something about themselves. At the end, it looked like a spider's web. That was cool, and we got to know a little bit about each other." --Jake Zielinski
