https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o Looking back on your sixth grade experience, what do you think an incoming sixth grade student should know? How can this information be helpful? Explain your reasoning. en-us 2018-06-07 12:57:06 UTC 2025-12-17 18:40:38 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814133 Looking back to when I was coming into 6th grade something that I wish I knew was how much of a difference there was with homework. Last year i would have like one math sheet and a paragraph but now i have 3 times that. Also something that i wish that i knew would be that every assignment that you hand in really counts. I cant remember one test or quiz that I studied for last year. I wouldn’t even  care about my grade at al. This year your final average in evry class carries up with you to high aschool. Because of all of this work in sixth grade i wish that i knew how stressful it was going to be. I thought that it was just going to be new school same amount of work. Not even close. Finally, I wasn’t In any classes with my friends from my old school, i wish i knew that I would make a lot of new friends/ that is what I wish that I knew when I was going into 6th grade.]]> 2018-06-12 13:18:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814133 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814201 Looking back to when I was coming into 6th grade something that I wish I knew more about what 6th grade was going to be like. I think that an incoming student should know how to use a lock, knowing what their teachers were like and where their classrooms were. One tip is to stay organized so that way you know where your work is. ]]> 2018-06-12 13:18:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814201 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814272 Looking back to when i was going into 6th grade i was very nervous and excited. I think the new students should understand that after the first week everything is fine and its a great time. If you just relax then it all works out but to be honest there is nothing to worry about because everyone is a little confused at first. ]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814272 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814283 Looking back on my 6th grade experience one thing I think that an incoming 6th grader should know is how important it is to manage your time well. This is important because there is a big difference between the amount of projects and assignments in 5th grade to the amount of assignments and projects in 6th grade and if you do not get everything in on time it will hurt your grades. And as a side note if you have Mr.Lavelle don’t be late to his class! :)]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814283 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814287 Um they shud know that its super hard and a lot harder than 5th grade so be prepared]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814287 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814292 All ting considered i think that sixth graders should know to stay organized because it really impacts how you will do in the upcoming months and days. With all your classes it is essential to stay organized because you have many papers, tests, projects, etc. If you decide not to be organized you can lose papers and other valuable grades. Also i think it is essential that you walk briskly in the hallways. So that you can get to class on time. Tardy’s dont look good on your grade. Also it is inconvenient to other students who try to get to class if your in thier way. This is what i think a student should know coming into sixth grade.]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814292 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814309 Looking back to the time when I first walked into the school, I wish I had looked at my schedule. I would tell incoming 6th graders to hold on to your schedule. It’s good to have your schedule since day one til the last day because classes might change or it might be hard to remember your schedule. I would tell them to look at what room is your next class and to look at other classrooms to see where it is.  I made a certain path to go to class so I wont forget. This could be helpful to 6th graders when they first get their schedule. I messed up with my schedule many time, but its okay! The new student can be able to go to class in time before the bell and get organized and situated before the teachers give instructions.]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814309 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814346 Looking back on sixth grade I feel that there are a couple of big things to pay attention to and should do to be successful in 6th grade. One thing is to plan out. Not only hw, but projects. It is never a good idea to wait till the last minute to finish a project or to gather materials. Basically don’t put yourself in a bad position where you have to rush your work. Secondly something I would advise is studying for finals or assignments. Especially for Language classes where you aren’t as familiar with the content. There are many other things that you should do, but these are just a couple of the big ones.]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814346 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814350 The most important thing they should know is to not be scared. Tests are pretty easy in 6th grade. If you study and remember everything, you will be fine. About studying, dont overdo it. Only review what you need to. It only makes you more nervous. Also, don’t be afraid to try and make new friends. Everyone is pretty nice. Don’t be afraid to reach out to people. And if you ever need help with anything, tests, people, or work, ask a teacher. Last important thing, don’t try to be popular, it’s just not worth it]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814350 sg502100 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814381 Looking back on my sixth grade experience, a couple of things an incoming student should know that they should always be organized and ready to go to any class. For example, there are many projects that will be handed out which could be stressful but if they stay organized and plan ahead then they will complete all of their work in time. In addition to that they should take some time and study for tests such as the finals.]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814381 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814407 Looking back the only thing I could tell them is use the damn planner. I was too lazy to write in it most of the year and I did not do a lot of homework and missed high honors in the first quarter because of not doing homework in this class. There is also a lot of homework and just because there is a lot it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it. Stay on task.]]> 2018-06-12 13:19:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814407 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814424 Looking back on my 6th grade experience I think a incoming 6th grader should know that they should never procrastinate cause your work builds up over time. This information is super helpful, procrastination causes stress, and by preventing procrastination your preventing stresss and anxiety. I also think a incoming 6th grader should check there grades often, so they are able to see if they are missing any work, or if they need to boost up their grade they are able to chat with their teacher about their grade.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814424 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814425 I think an incoming sixth grader should know that you should always plan your time,I think this is important because I always did my work at the last minute.Also you should never chew gum in class]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814425 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814432 I think incoming sixth graders should know that Eastview is not that scary. At first it can be hard to find your way around this school, but once you get used to it, its fine. Also try to manage your time wisely. This will help improve your grade.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814432 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814433 Looking back, the best thing you can do to make it through sixth grade physically alive is to do all your homework/work right away and to take nothing to heart (such as insults) and to make friends early in the year or better yet have friends on your team before you even enter sixth grade. Also instead of getting less work at the end of the year, you get bombarded with homework. Thirdly, always check to make sure you did your homework multiple times (especially on the weekends). And always remember, value your hand more than someone you don’t know’s iPad (radiators are hot!)]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814433 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814452 Somethings 6th graders should know is to keep track of their assignments. If you are bad at that you need to get good. It will help alot when looking through homework]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814452 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814467 Looking back on my sixth grade experience I think that they should know that Eastview isn’t has scary as what u may think it is. At first it can be a little overwhelming but after the first quarter it is easy going there on out.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814467 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814474 Looking back on my 6th grade experience, I think that an incoming 6th grader should know and be prepared with all the work that they’ll be getting. The first few weeks of school, we got a really small amount of homework. However, around the beginning of the 2nd quarter, the amount of homework we got each night from every class increased a lot. I’d just want an incoming 6th grader to know that you do get lots of homework, but after a few weeks or so, you get used to it.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814474 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814511 An incoming Sixth Grader should know that they have to survive this place because for me, i barely came out alive. At the middle months of the school year, so much homework is given i almost fainted. I had to stay up very late to sometimes finish it, mostly because i already sleep when i come back from school. So Sixth Graders should do their homework in class, ahead of time because itll be worth the trouble. Another thing they should watch out for is their enemies. They can be many, little, small or tall, at least stay away from them. Not saying you should stay a 20-feet radius in a circle away from them, i mean avoid at least making some drama happen. And last but not least. FRIENDS. Your last year school friends? They could be gone, abandoned, or staying away from you, just make a good impression, and you will get lots of friends in time. "And what about the teachers?" Stay away from Mr. Lavelle and others like him, like Ms. Levin, She might be nice, but she yells kinda a lot also.Make a good impression, and you will befriend them. Also don
't get your locker raided, sometimes that happens. But like once in the entire school year in a team. Middle School is a big transition, so watch out boiz,  keep the time in your mind, do your work, and stay E.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814511 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814527 One thing that I think incoming students should know is that it’s not as scary as it may seem at first. You may feel overwhelmed with having to manage so much work from so many classes, but once you get into the swing of things it all feels natural, and you’ll meet many new people from all the other schools that have similar interests as you.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814527 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814528 *sigh* Coming into sixth grade was a huge transition. A few major things I would say all 5th graders need to know to survive sixth grade are: never be late to gym, always do your homework, studying is a waste of time (for me at least), don’t plagiarize in VRE, don’t worry about bullies or making friends, and finally, do not, I repeat DO NOT mess with Mr. Lavelle.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814528 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814587 Based of my experience, I think future sixth graders should know that If it’s a Monday and you get a homework assiment that’s due Friday, finish it on Monday or just work on it. This will prevent a build up on homework.]]> 2018-06-12 13:20:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814587 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814617  I think that incoming 6th graders should know at least a couple of things. I think that for starters 6th graders should go into 6th grade knowing that there not going to get a reading log per week from one teacher, but at least a couple different assignments from all of your teachers. I think another thing that would be useful for the incoming 6th graders is to know how to navigate around a building while being in a rush because that’s pretty much what i was worried about most. And a final thing I think that the incoming 6th graders should know is that you shouldn’t expect all of the work not to count even if it is a homework assignments because everything (and I repeat everything) counts. As you can see this is what the incoming 6th graders should know for coming to Eastview.]]> 2018-06-12 13:21:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814617 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814620 I think that one important thing an incoming sixth grader should know is how to productively study. Back in elementary school, studying was easy because you got review packets, or in some instances, you didn’t even need to study. But, in Eastview, studying is most of your work, and you have to find out a strategy that works best to study for you. I would also say, get to your class on time. Teachers get upset when students are late and this is your first year switching classes, so it is a new concept.]]> 2018-06-12 13:21:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814620 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814627 I think an incoming 6th grader should know that there will be a lot of homework but If you do your work then 6th grade will be easy for you.  Also you need to get to class early. You need to be origanized especially with your binder. A lot of binders have broke this year so make sure you are organized.]]> 2018-06-12 13:21:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814627 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814653 Looking back at my 6th grade experience what i think the incoming 6th graders should know that there will be a LOT OF HOMEWORK but everything will be manageable to completely you start early i think they should also know that you will meet new people and have new and better friends and if not everything would also be finei also think they should know that the time will go by fast and as soon as you know it school will be done. This is what i think the incoming 6th graders should know. ]]> 2018-06-12 13:21:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814653 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814766 2018-06-12 13:21:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814766 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814767 I feel they should not over think the fact of homework because its not a lot of homework actually because you finish most of your homework in class. I also think that they should study for every single test it really pays off. Also When Finals come there is no need to worry they are all on different days. I Feel they should just enjoy the experience ]]> 2018-06-12 13:21:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266814767 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266815150 2018-06-12 13:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266815150 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266815952 Stop moving]]> 2018-06-12 13:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266815952 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266816955 2018-06-12 13:30:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266816955 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817266 2018-06-12 13:31:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817266 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817477 2018-06-12 13:32:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817477 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817697 2018-06-12 13:33:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817697 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817862 2018-06-12 13:34:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817862 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817950 2018-06-12 13:34:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266817950 https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266818187 2018-06-12 13:35:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jillwalters1/c11mgtvmtj2o/wish/266818187
