Cross Age Tutoring

This year my class participated in our school's Cross Age Tutoring program. We worked with a second grade class for nearly six weeks. My fourth graders listened and guided as the second grade tutees read. They asked their tutee comprehension questions and practiced Fry Phrases. The program is successful in more ways than increasing reading skills, namely building up the community spirit at our school. Our classes look forward to a kickball & popsicle party to celebrate all of their hard work together!
