Buddy system

In a secondary setting, a teacher could set up some students with a younger student in the school or an outside school (legality permitting) to tutor them on reading and writing. Students can write reflections on this buddy program (something they will encounter much throughout college if they choose to attend) and can also teach themselves along with teaching a younger partner. These types of papers are very beneficial to get started on at a younger age because it puts them at an advantage over students who never are afforded this opportunity.
