Middle school

Every kid in middle school should be allowed to have their phones with them. Kids should have phones with them for many reasons. For example, phones could help with school tools, they could be important in case of an emergency, and it teaches them responsibility. In my opinion, they help a ton when it comes to a school day for middle school students. First, kids are getting into more complex skills, and if they forget a certain tool, they can use their phone. For example, if a kid forgets…

Despite bearing some minor similarities, the differences between middle school and high school significantly impact the ultimate experiences in each educational stage. Both stages require some amount of effort in order to continue through each grade. An obvious similarity would be that the classes offered are also accompanied by a variety of teachers. Furthermore, students will encounter many passionate teachers who genuinely want to see them succeed; however, the chance of encountering a…

target for being bullied. Middle school is supposed to be the transitioning years. Everyone is finally growing up but no one seemed to be maturing. Day after day, waking up in the morning, I dreaded going to school. I was different from the other kids, or at least they saw me as different from them. I cared more about school and my work than most of the other kids. I didn't have many friends, I definitely was not the popular kid. I wasn't the prettiest girl at school, I dressed in baggy…

grade levels behind everyone else from kindergarten to 8th grade. The teachers tried to help me, in elementary school they pushed me in hopes of making me an average student. Resource classes every day, taking me out of other not so needed classes, one of the classes being typing. Now as a high school student, being that girl who’s slow at typing and always has to look at her hands. Middle school came around and I was terrified of what people would think if they knew that I was in the read 180…

conversation. But when i entered middle school my whole demeanor changed. For part of elementary school I attended Summit Christian Academy, I loved the school and my friends there but sadly they had raised the tuition the of my fifth grade year and we could no longer afford it. During that year we decided to move to leander to be closer to my new middle school. When we moved into my new house I…

before that all I needed to speak was Spanish. It was difficult but I persevered. For the longest time I loathed the language that caused me so much difficulty. It wasn't until recently that I became fascinated with the subject. It all started in middle school where I developed a passion for music…

bright hopes for my first day of middle school. I walked into the school, I wondered how my day would go. Anything would be infinitely better than elementary school so I was excited. Walking into the school, I saw many different people that I had never seen before, it was honestly a lot to take in at the time and still very new for me. The school was huge, looking around there was artwork all over the walls kids everywhere and huge doors which led all over the school. The teachers were directing…

Middle Schools operate within the same area that Junior High schools did; between the Elementary School and the High school. However, they primarily deal with the “middle grades,” which are 6 th , 7 th , and 8 th . They tend to operate on a block schedule, giving students more time in 3 or 4 classrooms per day to maximize chance…

Teaching at Russell Middle School was much different than teaching at Mountain Vista Elementary. Both experiences were fulfilling but each were completely different. In our lesson we taught the 7th grade advance math class about scale factoring. Our cooperating teacher had just introduced the topic to the class the day before we taught our lesson, so it was nice coming into the class and being able to teach the students something new. This lesson also had us teaching as a group and not in…
