Hi my name is Katt James and middle school is my kingdom. My boyfriend is my king well sort of more like a crush who I am about 75% sure likes me back! My best friend, Bella is always here for me no matter how mad I make her day to day.…
It went somewhat downhill after that because during my first year of middle school my grades were at a c average. That angered my parents and they decided that paige middle school was not good for me so they decided to transfer me to john glenn middle school. That change of schools really did hit me like a truck. The level of education and standards were so much higher than my other middle school. They had no time for screwing up, so i got myself together and decided to give it my all. I did good i got a’s and b’s. I pushed myself and got to a better…
I read the article “10 Things Middle Schoolers Think you Should Know” by Rachel Vail. There are a few connections that I made.One connection that I made was when she wrote,”I like it when you make use get up and move, it makes it fun and easy to remember”. I relate to that because I most enjoy class activities.Also, it helps me remember the assignment. When we do school activities it helps me understand and not be confused when the test comes. For example, In my teacher’s class when made posters to help us remember the math formula, I extremely agree with her on this statement…
Mrs. Greenberg- (David’s mother) she left David and Lindsey because she had a phobia that made it hard for her to leave the house. She felt like she was trapped in her home. She ended up leaving to be with a farmer from Maine named Marcus.…
Ever since I was a child, I was messy with my school work and maybe even with non-school related things too. I was very unorganized and with that came grades that were not acceptable to my parents and, looking more into the future, college. My mother would beg me to start becoming more organized and neat but I would not listen to her. When I started middle school, she heard about a program called AVID that supposedly helped students become more organized, helps you take notes, and helped them look into college and the future. As soon as she realized what the program was for she immediately put me in it. I took the program for all my three years in middle school and my experience, it worked. Thanks to my mother and, of course, the program she…
I rarely spoke in middle school. When people tried to make conversation with me, I’d get scared that what I’d say would make me seem lower in their eyes, so every single possible response was excessively mulled over in my head. Usually, none of my possible responses would seem good enough, so I’d either quit and return to the safety of a book —which I always had on me— or awkwardly stand there until the person left me or the conversation. If there was a social or party, I’d skip it or read in the corner. I hated it, but was too scared to do anything else. By the end of 8th grade, I resolved that I didn’t want another year where fears and anxieties would control my life. I wanted to be able to socialize and make friends like everyone else.…
Studies say that “Waking up before 8:30 is bad for kids”. Middle School start time should start later because sleep affects the students attitudes,grades,and health. Middle School start time should start later because sleep affects kids attitudes. Kids can get forgetful and will not be able to remember everything if they do not get enough sleep. Being tired can get kids moody and make them mad at anything. The kids can even act weird or do weird things if they do not have enough sleep. However, attitude is not the only thing that is affected if a kid does not get enough sleep, grades can be affected too.…
I tried my best to fit in but arriving at a completely new area and having to make new friends was an extremely scary thought for me. I didn’t know anyone, I didn’t have any friends, and I felt isolated. All I wanted to do was go back to California to the familiar faces I left behind. As the year progressed, I was forced to break my shell and interact with others in my class gradually becoming more confident in myself and making new friends. The internal battles I had to endure in me becoming more social eventually taught me not to be afraid to build relationships. Learning this at an early stage was very beneficial to me because now I am not afraid to talk to complete strangers and even befriend…

“Middle School” (Getting accustomed to “big kids”, different teachers, friends, activities, successes, and heartbreaks). What were you like in Middle School compared to the way you are now? Due 1/7 and 1/8…
Middle school was really weird time for me. It seemed like it was the most dramatic / drama filled. Our school at St. Peters was messed up, anything that could happen did. I've had teacher come up to me and ask for answers to what happened. Students doing bad things and etc. Also middle school to me was so fun, because people who I like got in trouble because of me. If you weren't my friend at St. Peters you better hope that you weren't mean to me, because if you were the teachers would find out what you did and they get in trouble.…
Middle school is awesome! In the transition from elementary to middle school, it can be tough, but you will make it! One major change is having six new teachers with different rules. For example, Mrs. Provost lets you listen to any school appropriate music, Mrs. Buggy only lets you listen to Josh Groban, and some teachers don’t let you listen to music at all! Teachers have a lot of differences, but they also have a lot in common too!…
Math has been easy for me till i hit high school. I did not struggle in middle school or in elementary school. Why i think i did not struggle in middle school is because the teachers were better at teaching and actually dedicating themselves to teach the kids and for them to have a better understanding. In the past when i used to struggle in math i was confident enough to ask the teacher for help. But now that i am in high school that changed because the teacher is kind of mean and does not really teach well. In the past when i would struggle on a difficult problem i would work and continue working until i could figure out the solution. I was doing this because wen i was in elementary school i felt more like i know what i was doing instead…
Throughout my years of middle school, I have had much success in completing my goals and setting myself up for a successful future. By practicing organization and completing homework well and on time, I have been able to complete many things that I have put my mind to. Through doing these things, I have done well in middle school and gotten no less than a B in all my middle school classes. I also feel it is very important to listen and interact in class because if these actions are not completed, homework is a more difficult task. In my opinion doing well in school is more than just being smart because in order to gain true knowledge you have to learn what it is like to listen and pay attention in class. True knowledge is learning how you…
I also miss all the nice teachers and the fact that we could go outside for recess and get to run around, play, and socialize. People have also said that middle school is really tough and that you would lose a lot of friends that you were really close to. Which I have lost a lot of friends, but my true friends stayed with me. Middle school can be tough at times but I can get through it and for the most part school is quite easy. My personal experiences with middle school certainly aren’t the best. They aren’t the best because there have been fights between really good friends and they aren’t friends anymore. There has been a lot of things…
