Sixth Sense Narrative

Sixth grade sure is a large step up from elementary school! With all the responsibility, freedom, and excitement it contains, it’s definitely a brand new educational experience. Now that the year is almost over, I’m going to miss all the adventures that happened this year. The first day of sixth grade was a monumental day for me. I was being exposed to new teachers, new friends, and a new environment. When I arrived at school, the first thing I had to face was my locker. After multiple tries, the locker finally opened. The next sixth grade obstacle I had to face was choosing a seat to sit at. I awkwardly walked into math class, scanning the room for an open chair and decided to sit with a couple of my friends from fifth grade. One of the biggest struggles of the first day was finding my classes, as walking all around the school to get where I need to be was new to me. It took a lot of adjusting, as our grade had gone from being the big kids in
Smith’s folklore plays. I wrote a book called Harry Plopper and the Porkerer’s Stone, and my book was lucky enough to be chosen to be turned into a play. With the blood, sweat, and tears shed as we were binding our books, it felt great to finally get down to the auditorium and practice our plays! Our class learned how to project our voices, be funny and comical onstage, and we had a blast doing it. My friend and I were also chosen to be the emcees for the night, which involved a whole lot of practicing. On the night of the plays, our class did an amazing job and entertained the whole crowd. The folklore plays certainly were an experience that I will remember for a long time! Middle school was a huge transition at the beginning of the year. Although it was tough at first, I had friends, teachers, and a caring environment at school to support me on this educational thrill ride. I am grateful for everything I’ve learned throughout my sixth grade
