Author: Ellen Fingeret Role: K-12 Classroom teacher Location: Harrisville, RI Date: 10-16-02 To encourage peer relationships in our Primary School (Pre-K, K, and Grade 1) we have initiated a Buddy Classroom Program. Grade 1 classes pair with K or Pre-K classes to share special projects. This enhances communication skills of all students as well as promote an involved school community. Individual Grade 1 students also attend Pre-School Physical Education classes with their Pre-school Buddies to model and assist with P.E. tasks
