Tips for a sixth grader?

Question

Hey! Tomorrow is my first day of the 6th grade, and I'm nervous as heck! The school I'm going to starts in the 6th grade, so everybody's new this year. It's a private school if that helps. I saw this girl and she seems really nice and I really want to be her friend, any tips? I met some other people that are nice, too. All of them came from the same school though, so they're already friends. What can I do to fit into they're "group"? And by the way they aren't like s****. or anything, they actually are pretty nice!

Answer 1

just be yourself and make new friends. you will be fine.

Answer 2

the most important thing to remeber is that there are probably alot of others who feel just like you. lots of other people in your class probably are nervous and wondering exactly the same thing, so if you feel awkward remeber that its OK. also, it will be really important to be comfortable tomarrow, so make a check list for the morning to make sure that you have everything you need BEFORE you leave the house (jacket, lunch, busspass, ect.). if you dont already have all of your school supplies already, now would be an excellent time to get them. the last thing you need to be worrying about is if your going to be in trouble for not having something you need. if you have uniforms, you wont need to worry about this, but if not, make sure you feel confident in the outfit you pick out. looks arn't as important as how you act toward others, but feeling confident is always a plus. have a great time on you first day! hope i helped

Ok, so first of all, DO NOT try to fit in to their group. I did that in sixth grade and seriously everyone will just think you are trying too hard. Just be who you are without thinking about it too much. And as for the girl who you want to be friends with. give her a compliment and see if she acts friendly or stand-offish. Just use common sense. And if you guys become friends, then great. If you don't, then just forget about it and move on. Just make sure you don't make yourself look dumb and like a wannabe. I promise you, no one will feel bad for you and take you into their group just because you sucked up to the clique you wished you were in and got rejected.

Okay, being a freshman looking back on middle school, I can tell you what I would have done differently. I would have first of all had a better attitude. I know it sounds weird, but if you tell yourself that you are confident and outgoing and if you think in a positive way, you'll just get in the habit of thinking in that way. It takes some getting used to, but is very worth it. Next of all, I would have been more talkative. It's scary, trust me, I know. But just be confident and believe in yourself and people will like you.

It's different than elementary school for sure. But everyone in your grade is in the same boat. They're all nervous, they all want to do well, they all want to make friends. Be a friend to make a friend. And make sure that you talk to who you're sitting by in class (unless they are like, a total snob or a total nerd). They might seem distant at first, but they are probably just shy and nervous like you. But trust me, it's the people who are confident and talkative that make friends in sixth grade, basically regardless of how they look. And by gettting involved and doing well, people are attracted to you.

Sixth graders are ridiculously insecure, I myself was as well. No one wants to be a nerd. And just remember that if you talk to people, while there will be ones you don't exactly click with, you WILL make friends. Just be yourself, have a good attitude, and try hard. Someday you will wonder why you worried so much.

Good luck:)

Just be yourself :D

Answer 6

Well Hey! you've got it great. All the kids in your class are new, and will need to make new friends. So they to will be starting over. When I started 6th grade (last year) it was my 2nd year at the school , and we only had 2 new kids, so it was easy for them to make friends. And for fitting in the "group", just be yourself. Don't change, because you don't need to be in a group. And you know what I go to a private school and it seems all of them nowadays have groups; instead of the exclusive cliques.
