Middle School Is A Middle School Is A Big Step!Big Step!

Middle School Is A Middle School Is A Big Step!Big Step!

Sad. It can be difficult if you aren’t in the same classes with some of your old friends. But it gives you a chance to make new friends!

It means you’re getting older, so it is ok to feel:

Excited!!! There is a lot to look forward to.

Nervous. Starting middle school can be a little scary. Don’t worry– lots of other kids

will be feeling nervous, TOO

How Is Middle School Different?

Different classes. You will go to a different classroom for each subject...So you’ll need to learn where each class is. You will have 3 minutes between each class period, which is plenty of time.

How Else Is Middle School Different?

• New rules. Read your Agenda and follow the rules!

• A busier schedule!! • Older classmates in some cases.

• More schoolwork…

How will you ever do it???

• More teachers

Getting Organized Is Your First Key to

Success!

#1. Use your planner.

#2 Be Sure You Understand Your

Assignments

• If you have a question don’t be afraid to ask it! Others probably have the same question as you, so raise your hand!

•Don’t leave school without understanding what your homework is and how to do it.

#3 Make Time For Homework

• Find a quiet place to work. Make sure it has plenty of light. And none of this ->

Call friends when your work is done.

Once your homework IS COMPLETED…check your backpack and put your things in a safe place for the next day…like here:and here:

Getting organized takes practice. But you’ll see

that it is worth the effort.
