Because we wanted to have great questions for our interviews at Dewey on Thursday afternoon, we used some of Thursday morning to practice our questions by interviewing our second grade buddies.
As you can read in Bjorg and Thaison's blog post, we had worked hard on selecting our questions. In order to be 100% prepared, some people even chose to stay in through recess to figure out great questions.

We walked through the door of room six, after recess and had to sit behind our buddies. We each had a sheet of paper with questions that we each came up with, that would later be revised. Then we sat with our buddies, at a table, and interviewed them as if they had parents in the military.
(Nora) some of my questions were: “What is your favorite color?”, or, “What shape do you want your pillow in?”

(Sara) Some of my questions were: “What is your favorite book?” or, “Who is in the military in your family?”
When we sat down we started questioning right away. We even gave examples and drawings to give them ideas! We found out a lot about our buddies!
(Sara) I found out that my buddie (Marc) likes penguins.
(Nora) I found out that my buddie (Madden) likes the color yellow. Who knew!?

Some people felt great because they felt like the questions they asked would make a great impression. Although, some people felt a little strange because there was a lot of awkward silence between their partner and them. However, this meant that they knew they had to work on changing their questions around for the real interview or they had to figure out more follow up questions.
Personally, Nora and I think that we did really well when we interviewed our buddies.Thank you Room 6, especially Hailey, Espi, and LaNiya!
Love,
Sara and Nora
