Pattengill Elementary!!!

Hey everyone! Eric and I have loved hanging out with Mrs. Rudberg this past school year! Every week we bring our UM Friends to math time. Eric, our UM friends, and I split up into different stations so the students can rotate to each of us and work on different math worksheets or play "Fast Math" games.

It is so awesome to see students connecting to our volunteers each week. This past week I overheard some students talking to one of our volunteers about how they were both born in Korea. It was really neat to see the student light up when she found out the both were Korean. They talked for a little bit about their similar experiences. Even though the interaction only lasted a few minutes, that student really opened up to that volunteer and I had never seen her do that before.

Volunteering in any classroom really makes an impact on the students. Sign up and come to any BookMark session you can so you too can make a positive influence on students!

We will be returning to Mrs. Rudberg's class after our spring break (March 11). We go to Pattengill Elementary from 1:15-2:45 every Friday. Can't wait to see you there!
