Walking down the hall I see something that makes me smile. A fifth grade student tutoring a third grade student. As I eavesdrop into the tutoring session, wondering if the older student is just giving the answers, I am absolutley amazed at what I heard: Tutor Student: "Draw the array for 8x8." The younger student proceeds to draw a box with 8 columns and 8 rows, known as an array. I quickly learned there was great teaching and learning happening between these 2 students. I thought to myself "this is leadership at its best."
