A group of 4th and 5th grade students at San Cayetano School have been working twice a week with students from all four of the first grade classes. The 4th and 5th graders have been working on skills such as letter names and sounds, compound words, sight words, addition, and oral sentences.

The older students have enjoyed being able to work with their younger buddies as they themselves have improved their speaking skills and confidence. The younger students have enjoyed having the older students interact with them in a positive manner while they have worked on fundamental skills in reading and mathematics.
