Second and Fifth Grade Students are “Math Buddies”

Every Friday 5th grade students come to 2nd grade for math work stations. Both groups gain valuable practice in math skills. The 5th graders act as tutors and teachers to the 2nd graders. The following are quotes from the second graders:

Amy Resendiz: “Math buddies are very smart. They help us to be smart. Math buddies are fun too. Math buddies also help us on the dance mat. My favorite thing about math buddies is dance mat.”

John Rosenboom: “Mitchell Arlitt was my first buddy. Marshall Arlitt was my second buddy. My third math buddy was Marshall. My favorite part is the math balance.”

Tarah Munsch: “My math buddy is a good teacher.”

Anthony Luna: “My favorite part of math buddies is money. My first math buddy was Gavin Gosnell.”

Jessie Lashley: “I like math buddies because I like to balance things.”

Maddie Hawes: “My favorite thing is dance mat.”
