1. Just be yourself. Middle school is a big jump from elementry, especially the fact that you will have a different teacher for each subject.
As a sixth grader, I'm not sure what your middle school is like, but there isn't a lot to do with extracurricular activities like cheerleading, or sports. Those activities are usually reserved for the seventh and eighth grade people.
2. Don't try to live up to the upper classmen's expectations. Eighth grade boys usually spend some time casing out the new crop of girls in the sixth grade and will try to say things to influence you into doing things you aren't comfortable with.
3. Don't dress like a ****. I know that seems harsh but believe me Brittany Spears doesn't cut it in school. Don't try to be the most popular girl on campus by dressing down. Modesty is still the best policy.
4. Don't follow the crowd as far as doing something just because someone else or some other group is doing it. Remember you are there to learn, not party. Utilize your counselor if you have a problem at school, and don't be afraid to talk to the principal if someone is making you feel uncomfortable.
8th graders will make fun of you. They will sell you an elevator pass. Make sure you buy it.
Lunch is better, but the classes are hard. Don't worry though. If you flunk out, you can work at Wal-Mart.
Look forward to------Friends
Stay away from-------The ussuals, drugs, sex, peer pressure, blah, blah.
Good to know--------- Be yourself, don't let anybody push you around. Thos are the people that ussualy end up working as baggers or Fast food bus boys.
Dress--------- Sensible, you don't want too much attention (unless your into that) Jeans and girl stuff, I don't know?
Adice--------- Get good grades, in the future, there worth a lot more than a 2 month crush, trust me.
middle school is awesome.its a chance to meet new people and try something different.going from class to class is easy too.try to avoid people who seem kind of weird, get into fights, or bully around.as long as you have great friends you'll do fine.
middle school= more freedom wich= fun or
middle school= more freedom wich= pain
Im gonna be honest. Middle school was the most annoying and the most stupidest years of my life. I dont even really remember it. All you can really look forward to are the fun trips and events you'll have in 8th grade and 8th grade graduation! Im a senior now and Im gonna say that high school is so much more fun compared to middle school. Just be yourself, dont be peer pressured to do certain stuff. The stuff thats gonna seem OH SO IMPORTANT isnt going to be next year. Trust me. Dont act like a **** cause most 6th gradesrs dont even have boobs yet. Stay away from like drugs, smoking, and too much of boys. You'll regret most of the guys you date!! lol. Dress cute. Dont try be like TOO original and make too much of a statement out of yourself. Dress normal. You know jeans, cute tops, skirts..
Well, every teacher I know says that it's lots of fun teaching the lower grades right up until the second half of sixth grade, at which all the hormones kick in at once and the entire class goes crazy. The sixth-graders come back from Christmas break and it's like they just became aliens.
Or, as another sage person said, everyone goes crazy when they're thirteen years old. Make that twelve years old.
Having said that, you can have a great deal of fun if you've got a solid foundation. Do the work the teachers tell you to do and do your best in your outside activities. Don't try to join too many activities at once.
Some kids will seem to have many friends, and some will not. It's important to understand that there are kids who have a need to be surrounded by others because they're afraid to be by themselves, but having a lot of friends or very few friends isn't a measure of your personal worth, so don't worry about it.
6th grade was pretty cool for me. You get to do a whole lot of new stuff like you get lockers and 7-8 different teachers (depending on your school). You don't get recess, which wasn't a big deal to anybody in my school. Here are a couple tips that I could think of:
1. DONT RUN TO YOUR CLASSES! There is no need for you to run at all unless you are extremely late. Running everywhere will just make you seem more like a franticky little 6th grader.
2. Don't act like your all that just because you're in middle school now. You really aren't any of that.
3. Don't smart off to the older kids, or try to say something to make you look smart or funny. You may be smart in your grade, but most of the older kids are smarter than you. And don't remind them of the rules or tell them not to be mean or anything, then they really get annoyed. Mostly, if you stay quiet around the older kids, occasionally talking about how you didn't like this teacher or something, then they will like you and take you under their wing.
4. Don't try to stand up to any of the older kids. There really aren't any bullies that take your lunch money or whatever, but some kids do like to use words to get to you. If someone is bothering you, don't try to act tough and stand up to them, go tell a teacher or write a statement in the dean's office.
5. Have fun and try not to get involved in a lot of drama. Trust me, theres a whole ton of drama in middle school, and if you steer clear of the drama queens, you'll be happy.
6. You're only like 12 years old. YOU DONT NEED TO START DATING YET. You may think you're mature enough, but you're really not. You have plenty of time in high school. Middle school "dating" is really just some kids who say they are going out, but really all they do is walk around, occasionally holding hands, but they never actually go on dates.
Well there you go, that's all the stuff I could think of that annoyed me about 6th graders last year. But that was just that particular 6th grade class, they usually aren't that terribly annoying. 7th graders will be ok with you, cuz they were you last year, but 8th graders seem to get more agitated about 6th graders, so just stay out of their hair. Have fun!
