The Reading Buddy system supports early literacy development. Primary 7 volunteers buddy with children from Primaries 2 and 3 and meet with them several times a week. They listen to the children\u2019s reading and talk to them about the text. The volunteers are paired with individual pupils and they work together over the course of a term.<\/p>\n

The volunteers participate in a training session led by a teacher which focuses on the skills and strategies the children are learning as early readers. The Reading Buddies then support their buddy in reading sessions and help them to understand the text as well as simply reading the words. The Reading Buddies meet regularly with a Support for Pupils teacher to discuss their support.<\/p>\n
