Little Buddies
Remember your first day of 8th grade. The excitement to be on top and the privledges that come with the territory. Well they are all over soon but I hope your experiences better you in the future. You are role models in many ways and most directly to your little buddies. They think of you as adults and trust you, or not, beyond belief. Hopefully you have had a positive impact on their development. Tonight discuss the development on a physical, mental, and social level you have seen in your buddies. Please give at least one example of each.

A social change that I have seen in Giselle is that she talks with me. She use to not. A mental change that I have seen is that when I use to ask her a question she’d say I don’t know. Now she answers my questions with a real answer. A physical change that I realized was that she grew taller.
ReplyDeleteOn the day we got our little buddies, I was so excited. I didn’t know most of the kindergarteners because I didn’t want them to get sad if they didn’t get someone they knew. I got Teagan, and I didn’t really know her but she was very excited. She was not shy at all and when I first met her it felt like she had known me forever. I’d say that she is still very hyper but not in a bad way today. But she has changed. Over the time she and I have had better and longer conversations. Everytime she sees me she seems more excited. When walking to church, I asked her if she knew how to count to 100. She needed a little help but the next time when I asked her again she only needed help one time. I guess that means her knowlage had developed. At hotdog day she was telling me about her loose tooth and it ended up falling out the next day. She gets along with others really well and she might be a bit too young but she was telling me how much she loves makeup. From what I know she does cheer and plays softball so by the years she will be stronger at these activities.
ReplyDeleteThroughout this year I have definitely seen change physically, mentally and socially. Since I saw them pretty much everyday I couldn’t really ever tell that they were growing, but now I look at them next to things and I can tell they’ve grown. They’ve also lost their baby teeth and their adult teeth have begun to grow in. They’ve also changed socially. They have learned how to deal with problems a little better. They’ve also changed mentally immensely. They have learned how to read and write. Throughout the past month they have been paying attention during mass, unlike before where they would just sit and look around. Also, when playing games while walking to church they’ve learned have to use their knowledge.
ReplyDeleteI remember when we found out who are little buddies were and all the little kids were juat as excited as us. When they called Pya’s name she ran up to me and just wanted to go play. Little kids do not even care if they do not know who you are they just want to be friends. This is a very good example of mental health Pya could not remember my name for about a week and she would always ask it was so cute. From repeating whqt my name was it helped her. After that she could say my name crystal clear. Pya is a very nice little girl and is very social she will play with anyone who wants to play which is good thing. I have noticed that she has gotten very good at being quiet during mass. During Christmas time when we went up and they were cutting out there reindeer she was using scissors which sometimes can be hard. They were also learning how to use squeeze Glue and that was cool to them.
ReplyDeleteThe first day we got our little buddies was so exciting for us and kindergarteners. When they told me who my little buddy was, that moment was so nice for me. Lily ran right over to me and gave me a hug. It took her a couple of days to say my name but now every time she says it it's like shes known me forever. That's an example of mental heath for Lily. For physical health, when we walk down to church the first day she wouldn't stop jumping around as we walked down, she sometimes talked. Now she walks and doesnt jump, and she doesn't talk during mass anymore. For social change she interacts with other such as, talking to teachers, talking to other buddies big and little, and most importantly talking to me. She says my name right and she also calls me aly. Some cool memories are during christmas time we did the reindeer thing and she talked with me, keeps things she doesn't want to say the other to herself and she had a hard time with the glue, and cutting out the reindeer. I will be so sad when I graduate, it's like she was my child and I was like a mother teaching and caring for her.
ReplyDeleteThe first day, we got our little buddies and hanged out with them in the classrooms. We would try to start a conversation trying to get along with each other and learn more about them as we would on the way to church. At that time, he looked like a baby and didn't really know much at all. As the years go on, he had changed so much. He has been getting bigger and knowing more and more. He would now always come up to me at the beginning and give me a hug and start talking to me. I would never have to go to him. He likes to hang out with me and my friends. He has changed in all ways: physically, mentally, and socially.
ReplyDeleteIn the beginning of the year, when we got out buddies, my buddy was kind of shy to me but still talked sometimes. As time went on, my buddy started talking to me much much more, and I started talking to her more too. Now when she sees me anytime she always gives me a hug. When we go to mass together, we have conversations about many things. She likes to tell me about things that she learns about in kindergarten. Her language skills have definitely increased. She enjoys talking more and having conversations. I also noticed that she cares a lot about her friends and other classmates. She likes to be helpful, and likes to tell stories.
ReplyDeleteMy little buddies have definitely changed in many ways. On the first day I met them Phillip was very quiet and barely said anything. Joe was very talkative and upbeat. I really seen a change in Phillip. Of course he has gotten taller but from the first day to now he has started conversations and talks a lot more than the first day I met him. The first time we went to mass both of my buddies barely payed any attention, but I’ve definenty seen improvement throughout the year. Both of them have become friendlier and have matured since day 1.
ReplyDeleteMaddie looks a lot different from when we first little buddies she is a lot more mature during mass she is very respectful when people are talking physically she has gotten a lot taller every time I see her she always gives me the biggest hug and always says she misses me she always gets along with Alyson and me and Alyson’s little buddy she is a great little buddy
ReplyDeleteWhen we got our little buddies, my little wouldn’t even talk to me and she didn’t know how to stay still during mass or stop talking but now when I tell her to not do that or stop, she listens to me. Over the year she has became more comfortable with me. Now she talks to me all the time and when she sees me, she comes up to me and gives me a hug. I always see her playing with toys with other children and sharing with them. When we go to mass she pays more attention and doesn’t move around as much as she did before. Camilla has definitely grown in many ways through the year.
ReplyDeleteMy little buddies have grown mentally, physically, and socially. On the first day when I met them, Giselle was very quiet. Marita was very talkative and outgoing. Now they both have changed. Physically, Marita has grown a little bit and Giselle grew as well. Both of them have lost some of their baby teeth. They have both changed socially. When we walked down to first Friday mass for the first time, they were a little bit out of control. Now they behave very well at mass. Last but not least, Giselle and Marita have changed mentally. They are starting to recognize their letters and cite them like A🍎 Aaaa. They have also been learning how to read. I can’t believe that it is already the end of the year and I have to say goodbye :(
ReplyDeleteMy little buddy has grown is many ways such mentally, socially, and actively. Mentally he has gotten a lot smarter and would tell me all about what he learned. Socially he every mass has started talking to me a little more than what he did when we first met. Actively he is a lot more energetic and loves to move around a lot and constantly wants to play games. I had a lot of fun with him this year and i hope he continues to grow in all these ways.
ReplyDeleteI remember the 1 st day I got my buddy Prcious she is shy and still shy to this day but now she has been talking to me a little bit more for ex I know she has 2 brother that are old then her. Prcious favorite color is pink. She loves to eat ice cream. Prcious is a nice little girl and fun to be with. And very shy little girl.
ReplyDeleteI remember the first day I was assigned my buddy Lorelei. At first she was very shy and kind of reserved. She didn't really enjoy talking to me and she tended to say in her own little bubble. But after a few weeks of getting to know her and talking to her she started to develop more socially. After the first few months Lorelei began sharing her toys with others, speaking in a more sophisticated way, and acting like an older child. AT the beginning Lorelei wasn't really sure how to act but she has definitely changed in that area. Some physical changes I noticed are hair growth, she's gotten taller, her teeth have fallen out, and she's also gained more energy. Now Lorelei is a bubbly and energetic little girl. I have seen her really grow as a child this year now that I'm thinking about it. I have been apart of several changes in her life. Lorelei is still a little crazy at times and sometimes has a hard time following directions but she's definitely developed socially and physically.
ReplyDeleteThe first time i met my little buddy I really related to him because I never really spoke when i was little.every time i met my buddy he tried to speak with me a little bit more and soon he started to speak sentences to me. Axl also started to ask questions and asked me to do stuff for him and it to me was a great social boost from him just seeing him talking to David or Conner last hotdog day showed how much he grew this year. It will be sad leaving this year because my buddy was a great kid and it will be a sad day at graduation leaving him.
ReplyDeleteThe first time i met my little buddy he was pretty quiet. He was also pretty hyper too though. He loved to tell me things about his toys and friends. He asked a lot of questions and was very curious. Lev has definitely grown taller. He also has become more social with other kids and me. Mentally he has matured because he learned not to be rude when you don't get your way. His teachers helped him with that a lot. I will miss Lev a lot because he was an awesome kid. graduating will be sad/happy.
ReplyDeleteMy buddies have both grown sm throughout this school year. Keryn has such a broader vocabulary. She has also grown up sm trough her behavior. She has learned to listen to other people while they talk as well as talking in a much calmer tone of voice. Molly has also grown up in many ways. She is a very fluent reader especially for her age. She also is very mature for her age. She respects others and cares so much about others. Throughout the year I have seen her get more knowledgeable and sm more. They have both Gotten so much taller and have physicalally grown in every way. Molly has started to talk to more people and is starting to find her voice. I think I’m going to miss there smiles and their personalities the most. They are so different but they match eachother so well and I’m so glad hey are best friends I will miss them so much next year
ReplyDeletemy little buddy grew soo much over this year. i have noticed it especially with her relationships with others. when i first met her she was very quiet and didn’t really talk to me much, but now she is always talking and wanting to play. i have also noticed that she’s more knowledgeable and coordinated now. I know that because at the beginning of the year she didn’t understand how to play i spy and now we play it every time on the way to mass.
ReplyDeleteI have watched my little buddies grow mental an physical . When I first was assigned my little buddies they were quiet and kept to themselves and didn’t reallt like me . But as the days went by they have shown signs of adapting more to me , there whereabouts , kindergarten , friends, and teachers .
