Since I'm coming to an end in my middle school years in a few months, I feel obligated to make a guide to help you youngsters transition to middle school, and even help people who are already in middle school, struggling! Hopefully these tips will help you in your three years of Hell on Earth. 1. It's nothing like high school. I know, you're glad to get out of the same classroom all day, and that part is great, but don't think junior high is like senior high. You may or may not be exposed to new situations like peer pressure, confromity and stress and identity issues. However, this is normal because you're discovering yourself, it's fine. 2. Teachers aren't going to be as lenient as they are in elementary school. At all. Usually in elementary school, if you Do your best. Even if you don't get all A's or don't have those excellent grades you used to have, it's okay. Make sure you're putting in as much as effort you can and feeling good about yourself. If you want to do better, look into tutors, talking to your teachers or look at Youtube videos about that topic. 11. Relationships can wait. Statistics show that middle school relationship usually don't work out anyway, so why bother? It's fine to have crushes and maybe even fall in love, but don't rush into relationships and do anything crazy. 12. Stay unique and positive. There are tons of people who going to be against you, and there are lots of bullies, but remember that you are gift to this world, and that another equal individual can't make you feel like you're less than. 13. Consider high schools. Even if you're going to sixth grade, it's great to consider options for high school. Honestly, middle school flies by very fast. Everything will be over before you know it. 14. Prep for standardized test. If your school offers ACT prep or any other end-of-the-year test prep, at least go to one, even if it's on the weekend. One Saturday won't hurt if you can guarantee yourself that you'll pass
“Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s definition of your life, but define yourself.”– Harvey Fierstein
10. Think about your plans for the future what you’ll do after you’ve finished high school.
Making the transition from middle school to high school is a huge stepping stone in a teenager’s life. High school represents both the ending of a childhood and the beginning of adulthood. It’s a rite of passage and often many teens have the wrong impression when beginning this passage. Most began high school with learning the last thing on their mind. They come in looking for a story like adventure and have a false sense of reality created through fabricated movie plots acted out by fictional characters. In all actuality high school is nothing like you see in movies, television shows, or what you read about in magazines.
When confronting change, individuals may face perceived fears and challenges. Many current middle schools do not address the needs of middle school students as they transition from elementary to middle school (Akos,2004; Eccles, Midgley, et al., 1993). School personnel understand the problematic transition students embark on when moving from one level of schooling to another. The transition from elementary to middle school may be particularly challenging because it often involves substantial school and personal change at a time when most students are experiencing cognitive, physical, social, and emotional challenges that occur in puberty and have been coupled
There are some goods and bads about relationships.one good thing is making new friends.One bad thing is you might loose your old friends.Another good thing is you might start dating in the tenth grade.A last one which is bad is that you might break up with your first boyfriend/girlfriend.
After almost one-hundred and eight days, the 2015-2016 school year is approaching an end. So far, I have concluded that middle school is basically like building a house. Before middle school has started, in fifth grade, the house only has the boards and the main skeleton of the whole structure. All of the basics are learned in elementary school: learning how to read, learning basic grammar, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, fractions, the founding of America, how plants create their food, etc., but by the time students reach sixth grade, new knowledge builds onto what is already known. Letters are added into the familiar math equations; stories are written with all of the reading and grammar knowledge; unfamiliar people, wars,
you get to middle school you learn more in depth about everything you learned in
This is the most important part of school. This is where grades matter most. This is where colleges start looking at people. Colleges are looking for people that are willing to do what it takes to be able to attend their colleges. High school is a little bit tougher and is where there is a lot of illegal drugs. High school ends on a graduation when twelfth grade is completed and the twelfth graders are going off to college. Then college comes. This is where it gets tough. People have to have their own schedules and know what their doing because they are now on their own. Classes are harder than you have ever imagined. You are put to the test of if you are ready to go on in life. Prepare for
Middle school is very difficult and most of you are probably thinking How am I supposed to survive through the three years known as middle school. In middle school you are given more homework so you need to learn how to manage your time and how to prioritize. Another challenge in middle school is studying for test and quizzes. Last but not least is producing quality work you can’t get away with not doing good work anymore you might have been able to in elementary but not in middle school. If you learn to do all of these things middle school won’t be as hard as it seems.
High school and middle school have many similarities, as well as differences. A few similarities would be that in each level of education, there are eight periods in a school day. In both middle school and high school you have access to a computer. Both schools have M.A.P. testing in the spring and fall.
Moving up to middle school can seem scary it was at first to me. When you get here it might seem a lot different than elementary school. It is different but it’s just the lockers and going from one class to the other not that much of a change. It will get harder but that’s just because you’re moving up they want to get you ready for next year when it will get even harder it won’t be that hard if you do what you’re supposed to do in sixth grade instead of messing around. They are trying to help you get ready for harder times and what’s going to come so stop complaining they don’t complain they wake up earlier than you and come to school every day and think they have to grade all those papers. Would you like to grade all the papers
Going from elementary school to middle school is a big change. These changes can sometimes be difficult for students. There are several ways to prepare for middle school. I already have many experiences from middle school. So far, my experience has been great, lots of people are nice in middle school.
Now that middle school is coming to a great end I thought I would write about it. I didn’t think middle school was going to be as easy as it actually is. My 5th grade teacher always said it was going to harder than elementary school but it’s not in my opinion.
Transitioning to high school was frightening. I imagined it to be like in the movies, where the freshman were bullied and stuffed into lockers. Although my prediction was wrong, the new environment was very different from anything I had experienced before.The small community of friends that I had built in middle school was separated, and a blank slate was presented in front of me.
I have changed in high school the way that in middle school I really don’t like to be involved in any sports or even in student council, from last year I really don’t like any of those things, but now in high school is different.
