Hey guys! i could really use some advice. What is everything you should know in 6th grade? Thank you!?

Please answer my question thanks.Hey guys! i could really use some advice. What is everything you should know in 6th grade? Thank you!?
Everything your teachers and parents impart to you. A sixth grader is only about 11 yrs old...not expected to be a rocket scientist.Hey guys! i could really use some advice. What is everything you should know in 6th grade? Thank you!?
check the rules. you are too young for this. 6th grade is easy.
be urself n make the rite friends
That 7th grade is harder than 6th.
That was a while ago, but I'll try to help you.





Make sure you wear deodorant and take regular showers (every day or every other day)





Make lots of friends, be outgoing and and talk... you'll thank yourself in high school (even though friends sometimes change as you get older)





keep a diary.





stay close too your parents/guardians.





don't go on the computer too much.





do your homework.





do some chores.





have fun.
wear deodorant. do your school work, dont develop procrastination habits
You should know that there's more to life. Don't care so much about what people think. You won't even REMEMBER your 6th grade year when you get into high school and college... unless you met your soulmate or something... so you can do pretty much anything you want.





And study hard! If you start middle school with good grades, you'll be put into advanced classes in high school, and you'll get into a good college.





Also... make a lot of friends. Try to start making a lot of friends in other schools as well so when you get to high school, you'll know a lot of people and have a great social experience. (Plan ahead!)





Oh, and if you get a detention, it isn't the end of the world. But if you get more than a few, I'd tone it down a bit.





Pretty much just have fun! :]
like what? like health or like education?...what do you mean?
Work hard while your young so you don't have to when you get old.
don't worry!!! jeez, but i wrote a school survival guide. i'm pasting it.





Buses


They are dirty, messy, and full of brain damaged lunatics


Sit where you are supposed to and only talk to the person next to you or close by.


You look like an idiot turning around to talk to someone so stay facing forward and butt on the stupid seat


Someone…might…chuck something at you. just ignore it


Sixth graders are really annoying, just every once in a while tell them to shut up


Seating arrangement is sometimes undecided, so just stick to the sixth graders up front, seventh in middle and eighth in back


Basically, follow all the rules :P








Gym CLASS


Prepare for it, cause you don’t want to come looking stupid and weak


The games you will play are your normal activities- no dodge ball like in movies, no crazy fights or pantsing [okay, there is that]


PLAY FAIR, no one wants an idiot who likes to cheat


When in doubt, you are out. I’m serious, just go sit out!!!!


Try hard, don’t just sit there. No matter how much you stink your team still needs something and most of the time you will get a lucky shot


Your test are an array of 5 to 30 questions that are mostly multiple choice. So do a brief overview of your notebook and you are good!!





Track Running


You can practice this gym activity at home


When running, still BREATHE


When you feel sick and are sweating- THAT IS GOOD


Try you best, because you don’t want to look like the fatty who comes in last place


don’t brag about your place, or complain- doing either shows that you didn’t deserve it





King Pin and Kickball


For king pin, make sure to remember the [DCT] Duck, Catch and Toss routine


You can guard the ‘pin’ but having 12 people around it shows you are retarded and way too into the game


OMG! The stupid girls in the corner screaming or talking- move your butts and work!!!





KICKBALL NOW


I don’t care if the Jerseys look ugly or smell just put them on [oh, and for the blonds- the stretchy part goes on your stomach and your head goes through the hole]


When you switch around please don’t cheat and go up ahead. We all want to kick, but if you got out you should and HAVE to wait your turn


For the best kicking technique- don’t start straight out there, go to the side and run and kick it at an angle, this way it goes either to the floor or over and heads near the third base or first base where not many people are





Basketball


Focus is key


Have as much fun as possible


Wait your turn in knock out


When guarding someone, try to do your best but don’t be some dog and look scary





Health Class


Get over it


Just do it


Anymore?


Oh, DO YOUR STINKING HOMEWORK!


Key Apps


Basically you are typing on the computer


Even if you don’t ‘feel’ like it, do your lessons- because before you know it you will have an overload to do


On timed writings, try your best and watch what you do. If you aren’t sure this is the right key, then review in your mind the keyboard [memorizing the keyboard would help]


Okay, trying to ‘secretly’ peak at the board is stupid. Just DO it and if he asks why, tell him that you aren’t in home position





Study Hall


Isn’t this great? Time to lay back and finish your homework or read a book or chat if allowed


Use this to your advantage! You only get so many SH’s for one time!!!


Always have a book with you, just in case


If the computers are unavailable, accept it. you shouldn’t have left that to the last minute or maybe you can just drop in during lunch





Art


Simple enough, you don’t need to be perfect but just need to do what she says


Plan ahead, some projects look easy but take a long time


Bring all your supplies, you never know when you need them


If you follow the instructions the teacher gives you, you have a better chance in acing the class





Foreign Language


This is not a joke!


Pay attention, this stuff can lead you anywhere


When you aren’t sure what’s on a test, then it’s EVERYTHING


Practice at least 7 minutes a day- this can be on the bus, during lunch, or even during dinner


Keep all the papers you do, but be organized!!


Respect your teacher, it’s hard speaking a second language to begineers


Don’t act like the spoiled brat who knows everything, cause face it YOU DONT





Social Studies


A travel through time? Uncovering mysterious discoveries?


Just do the work, it’s pretty easy


Test coming up? STUDY. Anything can be on there- details, details, details!


This class might get boring, so I suggest paying more attention


Be respectful in classes- don’t pass notes during the movies or stuff. It’s rude and makes you look like you are high or something.


Okay, I understand totally if you get bored. I suggest doing what I do- try drawing out what he is saying. So if the teacher says “the pyramids were built a long time ago by hand” draw the big triangle.





Science


More fun then you expect


Bring all you need for this class


Always review the basics!!


For lab experiments, you should be patient. When working in a group, be nice but if someone is seriously out of wack, slap them back into place


Like S.S., details are big!


So you have an binder jammed pack with crap. Just clean it out. Keep basic info and toss out doodles and stuff. Ask teacher first though





Math


Teachers are meticulous about this!


Show you work, always!


Do it the way the teacher taught you [trust me, if she notices you loose points ]


Don’t use your calculator unless your checking your work


If you have trouble, you SHOULD ask the teacher. Not your parents!





Language Arts


This subject is able to let you outside some boundaries


Always always have a pencil and paper


If you aren’t sure about grammer or something, raise your hand





Lunch


Your whole life can be determined by who you sit with- so choose wisely!!


Table not big enough? Ask another smaller group to trade and tell them about how they are better off there


Next to some idiots? Not a problem, tell someone about it.


When called from your group to eat- no matter how hungry you are do not run up there like you are about to die! You look like a complete idiot


At your table, for respect, don’t complain about how hungry you are


Forgot your ID? Get over it and save a whale





Lunch [the food]


BLECH!


It’s convenient?? Whatever


Rule of thumb- if you can’t pronounce it, can’t determine it’s color, and is coming inside some weird object of odd shape= DO NOT EAT IT!


Extras are cool, but don’t get too many or you will look stupid/ fat [meaning four of them]


The food here can be disgusting, it usually takes 3-5 days of eating the same thing till you are okay with it


So, there is nothing you like there? Get a salad, even though it’s like wax it can be okay. Or get something else and eat what you like





After School


AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!


That explain it?


After school study hall is odd as it sounds, it's hosted in the library till 4:10


Late bus, omg! This is most terrifying. KNOW WHAT BUS YOU ARE ON!!


Whenever you have the chance, get your parent to pick you up


Be nice to the late bus driver. It’s late and we all want to be home


If you are in a club, have fun!! And try new things.





The Cliques of Middle School


[in order from greatest to smallest]


Popular


Cool


Wanna gonna be’s


Wanna be’s


Above Average


Normal


Passer-by’s


Band Buddies


Teacher’s pets


Exchange students


Broadway performers


Brats


Anime lovers


Nerds/Geeks


Weirdoes/losers





Fads


Purses- seriously, if you aren’t going to use don’t get one


Cussing- you are mentally disabled if you enjoy cussing. Kids all over the world are being ABUSED by this language by their families and if you use it, you are just as revolting


Dying your hair- please ask a parent before hand, and come on- love who you are!!


Gum- if you have braces, don’t!! Other than that, join it. just don’t get so obsessed that you buy huge boxes


For those quick fads, don’t trust them. When you walk in wearing that trendy item, it would have been ‘so five days ago’


Create your own. Bring tic tacs, wear headbands, put scrunchies on your ankles! Have fun!





The Do’s…


Do be nice to others, they’ll be nice to you


Do try your best, it comes in hand sometimes


Do try new things, you might come across your favorite thing in the world


Do Listen before speaking, words are hurtful


Do notice yourself, you will most likely change


Do try to realize who you are affecting, you can loose someone who could have been truly amazing


Do keep the old friends, you liked them for a reason


Do be yourself, some people will come to appreciate your true blue self


Do your homework, because people will look at that and make a fake image of you or love you








…and Don’ts


Don’t pick a fight, you will loose


Don’t go around spazzing, you look retarded


Don’t play guys like candy, that’s called a whore


Don’t text [cell phone] during class, you will get kicked out of school and what’s so important anyway?


Don’t wear clothes that make you a slut


Don’t disobey the rules, or else you’ll DIE! Moo ha ha!


Don’t complain about stupid things, seriously don’t


Don’t talk about people behind their backs, they will get you and you will blame it on them when it’s your fault


Don’t worry about popularity, it only matters in high school





Dating


It’s stupid


Do you really thing you are going to fall in love at this age?


So omg, you broke up. Big deal, you shouldn’t have dated in the first place


It isn’t that cool


Omg, you like someone. Big whoop, it’s called a CRUSH


But if you happen to get caught up in this, I say take it slow and please, please don’t discuss this with people. Some don’t want to hear about how you mooched some poor guy till he choked


And if you do break up, I still say get over it


Don’t live off of dating, it’s a bad life


Choose wisely


If you can’t stick with a guy for more than a week, then maybe [okay, you SHOULDN’T] be dating at all





Teachers


There are a lot of teacher types


1- mean. They aren’t really mean, just stricter and expect more. REACH for those expectations, go the extra mile to satisfy their hunger


2- childish. Don’t get too caught up. You need to learn something in these classes so fooling around is not so good


3- fun yet effective. The perfect ones. You will love them.


These aspects apply to substitutes too. Don’t take advantage of them. They can get back at you!


Teachers mean business, so don’t talk crap about them and don’t talk it to them!





Nurse


A world of cough drops, really


Got a pain? Get over it- that paper cut is a cut, just wash it out yourself!


It’s harder then it looks being a nurse. You aren’t just sticking band aids on and force feeding cough drops, you are helping those who really need it


Before heading to the nurse, remember what the problem is or you will look like you are skipping class


Speaking of which, it’s nice but have a reasonable explanation- like “headache, my mom told me to just take some Advil” easy as breathing





Library


Tranquility and what not 


Be nice- other people are there to read, not talk


Don’t be an idiot and stroll in there just to hold a conversation. It’s rude and insulting and just makes people hate you


Get what you need done, DONE I SAY!


The computers and SUPER slow so I suggest checking the home ones if you are looking for a book


Turn in overdue books, it is so annoying when you don’t


The staff there are nice, but don’t expect to be friends





Drills


OMG!! YOU ARE NOT GOING TO DIE!


Most people get all mad about the sound or are thinking it’s real. STEP ONE, just relax


There are 4 types of drills. Fire you escape the building silently. Storm and intruder you lock the doors and hide in the corner. Lastly, lock down.


Lock Down then send out specially trained dogs to search for drugs in lockers. Don’t sit there in your class staring out the window, just do what you are told


So your locker was picked, it was 89% chance it was a sharpie





Lockers and Hallways


Your locker is your own personal space, yet it has it’s limits


Junk in the locker don’t mix, so don’t do it! got some random papers? There is a trashcan outside!!!


You can decorate it, but doing outrageous things shows how weird you are [i.e. wallpaper, mirror, pencil sharpener and artsy fartsy photos]


Keep it neat- 1 time a week clean out your locker as in putting up those textbooks, throwing that trash away, and taking home your coat


The hallways stop for NO ONE


If you drop sometime, you aren’t going to get it back


Go with the flow, it’s a conga line of no return. The flow is like roads, one side goes forward, the other side does the opposite. Stick to it!


You can talk but you will probably miss 1 to 3 minutes off your passing period. Trust me, you NEED that time. So chat and walk!





Tests and finals


Test and Finals are different from quizzes. They are a little tougher.


So I admit it, you don’t need to study late into the night but you should still study or...cram


Check for your name! ALWAYS!!


Take a stab at extra credit


Bring an extra pencil and eraser!!


Check front and back sides to the paper [those are the tricky ones!]


Essay? Just deep breath and think about. Figure out what you want to say, and then add some spice. The teachers love the spice.


Forgot an eraser? Rubber bands work





See What I Mean


See? Those popular girls are sluts, and teachers aren’t really that mean. You are here worrying about how your life is going down the tubes, but really it’s not! You should really stop thinking about your middle school life as your future, and think of it as a starting point for a race. No re-do’s, it’s just 1 lap [so much easier], and you only have a little competition…





…After the experience


It’s high school, and you are down deep. You spent your middle school life being an idiot- sticking to gay fads, worrying about friends, and letting your grades drop. Well, you are in a pickle! And, ha ha, it’s all your fault. I told you Jr. High was a time to grow, not try to up your life. It all came down to high school, someplace a guide can’t help you- only the basic do’s and don’ts





BUT WAIT!





Toughie Situations 101


What to do, and how for those tricky mess ups and how-to’s





You fell down this huge flight of stairs


Once you have fallen, slowly get up!! You could be hurt and getting up fast makes you dizzy


So your stuff is sprawled everywhere, since people will be staring, quickly snatch the supplies. But you won’t be getting most of it back


Crack a joke if you want like “do not try this at home, kids!”


Deep breath and continue with a smile. Not a crack head smile, but that “nothing happened, just going my way” look


If someone has offered to help you, thank them and tell them you owe them. Because you don’t see these people often!





You forgot your homework at home


Relax, happens all the time


Do you have a ‘late pass’? If not then accept it. it’s late, you should have checked before you left


Before the bell rings, in class, go directly to the teacher [make sure he/she isn’t talking] and tell them the simple explanation. They don’t want a speech, just the facts


Suggestions to make it sweet= “Hi ___, I accidentally left my homework at home, would you like me to leave the room while you grade? Or do you want it tomorrow morning?”


When sitting there without your homework, you have the right not to talk about it. just roll your eyes and say stop


Immediately when home, put it in your backpack!





You didn’t even DO your homework


anyway- on the way to school plan it out. How much to do? How long will it take?


Times you can work: study times, freetime, lunch.


Work as fast. Tell your friends ahead of time that you CAN NOT be disturbed


At lunch, if you can, avoid a big lunch and if possible, head to the library with a pass





You’ve been crying and your face is red


Nothing make up can’t do


Can’t use any?


Deep breaths and soak some cloth in hot water and pat your face. Then dry it off and keep breathing


If you are on your way to class, snatch a tissue and sneeze a lot during class and speak in that nasal voice saying ‘you don’t feel well’


Or walk into class, purposely hit a chair and yell, “OW!!! Dang nab it, who left their chair out?!”


If you are on the bus, take out a book and cover the title. And if anyone asks, the main character [take a glance in book] is breaking up with Clarinda. The title of the book is Broken Hearts on Midnight Beach.


You are sick but the nurse didn’t help


Chill


If it’s a headache, then drink something, and close your eyes after a while of reading. When doing math, do a problem then relax


If stomach ache, you are probably hungry or you got to go to the bathroom. So just wait


If it’s both, after a period go back to the nurse and tell her the medicine didn’t hurt, and that you can’t go on. Just kidding, but do tell her that it hasn’t helped


You are running on 5 or less hours of sleep


When you get to school, splash water on your face. Make sure it’s cold first. Then dry your face off


Ask for some gum and chew it constantly


Get with a hyper person and start singing songs and jumping for about 5 minutes


Get fruit for lunch


Remind yourself tostay awake. If needed, get a buddy to pinch you awake constantly.


If you feel tired during class, go sharpen your pencil.
