Peer-to-Peer mentor program in middle school

Résumé du livre

Research has revealed there is a challenge for students when they transition into middle school. Research also proves that peer-based interventions are proven to be productive in many ways. This project explores peer-to-peer mentoring in a school setting between older and younger students. An effective mentorship program must focus on building relationships between the mentor and mentee as well as guide mentors to be good mentors and role models. The peer-to-peer mentor program uses research based strategies to help implement in a K-8 building. Training lessons, pre-and post-assessments and parent permission letters are included to be used to implement the program.
