Buddy's Home

Buddy is a goat that lives with his mom his dad and his little sister. Buddy went to school and his teacher was talking about house vs home. The teacher wrote it up on the board. Buddy’s teacher said, “House is a place that has furniture and walls, and a home is a place where you feel safe and loved by family. You feel cozy and make memories,’’ After school, Buddy went to his tree house and grabbed his note book and wrote about what house vs home is. In Buddy’s story, he wrote about his friend who lives in a mansion and how it feels to him. He wrote about his other friend who lives in a little apartment and how it feels to him. Then he climbed out of his tree house and went to ask his friends what their homes meant to them. When he got to their house, he got the answer and walked back to his tree house and wrote a lot. Buddy learned that home is where family is and memories are made.
