1st grade buddies
Last week our whole class went down to meet our little buddies. We made valentines animals. Our buddies are in 1st grade and are from Ms. Schroeder's classroom. Everyone was excited about going down to see our buddies.The first thing we did when we got down there was find our buddies....... Sadly mine wasn't there so I went with Reagan's buddy; Gracie short for Grace. Ms Schroeder showed us some of examples of valentines. (Below are some examples) It was fun and hard. Normally it wouldn't be hard because your just cutting out animals with construction paper. But you had to use all valentines stuff..... Like hearts! We made a bird altogether because Gracie wanted to and it had a bunch of different parts to glue together so we were multi-tasking. What we did was cut out a heart for the body, then we cut out another heart for the head, beak,feet and eyeballs were the body parts we cut out. There were cut out pieces on one table and on the other table were just pieces of colored papers. At the tables there was glue,scissors, and writing utensils that we could use. Everyone was having a good time with their buddies, the big buddies were helping the little kids, little kids were cutting out pieces of different animals. I think that everyone was having fun making animals. A lot of kids made very cute animals! We were all having fun, but then Ms. Shick and Ms. Schroeder told us it was time to go. Even though we had to go we said goodbye to our buddies, and a lot of us can't wait until the next time we see again.

Your description of creating animals with your First Grade buddies using valentines made me feel like I was there! And your creations are so imaginative and cute! These first graders are fortunate to have you as their Big Buddies.
