Reading Buddies

Reading Buddies is an educational initiative designed to improve literacy skills in children by pairing them with older students or adult volunteers. In this program, the "buddies" engage in guided reading sessions, where they share books, discuss stories, and practice reading together. This approach not only helps younger learners develop their reading abilities but also fosters a sense of community and mentorship. By creating a supportive environment, Reading Buddies encourages a love for reading and boosts confidence in young readers, ultimately contributing to their academic success and personal growth.
