MCDOWELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: Class teamwork pays off



Third graders from Mrs. VanDerworp's class and kindergarteners from Ms. Bochenek's class work together once a week at McDowell Elementary School.

They read books to each other.  The third graders have been trained to praise their younger buddy when they read or find letters and words that they know in books.  The little buddies really look up to their older buddies.  The older buddies are learning to be caring and empathetic with the kindergarten students.

Both groups enjoy this time together.
