Last Buddy Day

We had our last buddy day this week. It was a wonderful experience, but I'm definitely going to miss my little champ. He was a pleasure to have as a buddy and always put a smile on my face. On the last day, it was more of a connection and talk day. We didn't do and physical activity, instead we did a class tour and talked to our buddies about Summer plans and things they enjoy. My buddy talked about how he likes to write and draw, he showed me some of the things he wrote and drew. He's got such neat writing; I was absolutely shocked! His writing was so nice and neat, I couldn't even believe it was of a grade two's. My buddy talked about playing sports in the Summer and going on vacation. He wants to practice a lot of tennis- he LOVES tennis.

My buddy also talked about spending time with family, visiting his sister, and playing sports with his parents. He hopes that it will be warm and that he will miss grade two and his teachers. He said, he's a little afraid of big kids because they can be intimidating sometimes. It was nice to know how he feels and connecting with him. He gave me a hug before I left and told me he'll miss me, such an adorable little boy. I hope I can see him again soon, and even when he's grown up- such a wonderful kid.

  1. And you? What do you notice about yourself around a buddy as opposed to our class? What did you share about your fears/hopes? What lessons are you taking away from this experience?
