Activity 3

Books & buddies is our reading mentorship program which partners volunteers from senior centers, businesses and communities with the children attending at-risk elementary centers. The volunteers work individually with the students to focus on further developing the child's reading proficiency, comprehension and verbal recitation skills on a weekly basis for 16 weeks intervals, during the 2012-13 year, this created 92 partnerships of children and their mentors, both of whom were equally grateful for the experience. The students improved their comprehension 30%, increased their speed by 26 words per minute and accuracy by 6% after being mentored.
