I am good, but I have a bad clarinet. I have a vito, which is not the best. What would be the best clarinet for me? Not so much as a middle school student but a person with skills in clarinet.

If you want an intermediate clarinet, I would recommend the Buffet E11.

I never dated when I was in school but from what I remember all my best friends in middle school , their boyfriends broke up with them after like a week LOLOL .In high school .. Ehh things are a blurry memory for high school .. All I remember was studying -.-

Even if they get married the likelihood that it will last is abysmal.
You think you’ve got the world figured out at that age and you refuse to listen to anyone who knows what the heck they are talking about. There is a reason there is a driving, drinking, voting and legal age to marry. We don’t let children make life changing decisions on their own.

My best friend and I found a middle school that said they would take me as a science teacher and her as a music teacher. I really can’t wait to start for real and I want to know how I can get ahead and start my studies.(And if its possible, classes) I won’t be able to pay for anything at the moment, but I’d really like some help on this.

Sounds like you’re serious! Okay! Well, as far as your schooling goes–take ALL the science classes you can. This also goes for math classes. They go together. When you get to high school, continue this trend. Hopefully, that will include physics and calculus classes.

Over the summers, see if you can get into summer science camps–and eventually even work at these camps as a counselor in the summers. Also, get buddy-buddy with your science teachers (after they get to know you and your work ethic) and ask them if you can TA for them (my school only allows juniors/seniors to TA for teachers but it’s incredibly helpful). Also ask if they know of any programs you can get into or people that you should meet.

Eventually, you’re going to want to observe science teachers in the classroom after you leave high school. It’s hard to see the other side (the teaching side) and fully understand it until you leave your high school life/world behind (check out both middle and high school classes). Look into colleges and universities that have strong education and science departments. If they do their job to help you, you’ll be in and out of college in four years–and with two degrees.

I do want to note that it’s not a bad idea to keep your mind open to other things you love. Take fun classes in high school (while they’re free to you ;) and see what else interests you. Even if you’re set on teaching science, you’re going to need a break every so often. So take some time to find other things you enjoy. Good luck. Science rocks. ;)

Note: When you go to observe science classes, go to different schools. Each school (and district) is run a little differently. Get a feel for it. You’ll have an even better idea of what you like when you student teach. Science is going to be a big need area very soon, so when you’re ready, you could have some great choices to choose from.

My school is a very athletic school, and most things are sports centered and sports related. Without them, school won’t be as fun or interesting, and many of the things we normally do won’t happen because without the sports, there will be no reason to have them (Pep rallies, for example). What can we do to convince the state or school system to bring back our middle school sports?

start a petition. make a page that explains why you should have sports and get a LOT of people to sign it. explain on the page about why you think sports benefits you. if you get enough people to sign it im pretty sure they would reconsider getting rid of all sports. GOOD LUCK!

There are around 200 kids in all from 5th grade – 8th grade, boys and girls. We (the kids) have been divided up into 12 teams and need 6 games to play. So far we have kickball, dodge ball, capture the flag, and an obstacle course. What else could we do that would be fun for the majority of kids? Other activites that are not included in the 6 games are cake decoration and a water balloon fight or something that has to do with water. Any ideas would be very helpful! Thank you!

volleyball , wheelbarrel races ( when someone holds someone else’s feet and the person being held crawls with their hands), you can also look on the internet for some fun games
( you have a really small school our jr. hiigh has 7th and eighth grade and its bigger and our school district is really small.)

We were interested in street hockey, pogs, pokemons and other KID stuff.
I think the problem is the influences of media putting pressure on kids to be certain ways and the fact there are very few role models left.
What are your opinions and viewpoints of middle school dating?

I think it is scary. I’m 17 and I’ve never been in a relationship. I don’t see the point unless you’re older and looking to settle down. Dating is good for the experience but I don’t think kids should start that until at least their junior year of high school. I think middle-schoolers have the idea that relationships are solly sex oriented. Not everyone, but too many kids are having oral sex by the time they reach 7th grade. I was astounded when I heard this. It is a disgrace and America is headed for destruction.

School officials stated that the reason they’re planning to do this is because parents should not ignore the fact children in this age bracket are having sex. However, many parents argue that middle school students are too young to have birth control pills. The dj stated that he agrees with the parents. He also stated that he thinks it is ok to pass out birthcontrol pills to high school students. What do you think?

Honestly, excluding all the health risks, I agree. Somtime in the next year the male contraceptive is going to be realesed on the market, in the clinical trial it is 100% effective, among the several forms the the contraceptive comes in, one is a device that can be implanted in the arm (also removed at anytime reversing the contraceptive) and lasts for around nine years. I think that at fourteen boys should have this device implanted and removed at 24 when it wears out. I think that if we can find a way to give people in this country time to grow up and become educated we would have alot less problems in our society.

Is that true? I had a rather difficult time in middle school due to bullying. Is it going to be like that in my school?

HELP!

if it is different from public school, your really lucky! Anyway i have no idea what a magnet school is like, but i do know that high school and middle are very different. You have so much more freedom and the people become more mature [even some of the guys] although some will never grow up. i think bullying will end for you if you are going to a magnet school since the kids probably are smart and beyond that kind of aimless cruelty. I think you will like it once you get used to it.

Good Luck :]

Hi, i’m a 8th grader at my middle school and I would like some tips on what girls look for in a guy. Im kind of shy and I have a crush on this other girl in my social studies class. And well if you could can you please tell me some tips on how to get her to like me. Thanks.

well. since i am in middle school i will try to tell you but don’t hurt me if its not true. i like guys who are nice and that aren’t concerned with looks.Guy that talk a lot to me and put on the act that we are just friends even though they like me. Guys that will be there even when you start to cry, and guys that won’t blow you off for any reason. I don’t really know what to tell you. Most girls like that aspect in guys though. Just a caring person that doesn’t mind listening to a few hours of emotional stuff. Try to think like a girl but don’t act like one. Bring her roses or something or another. I really don’t know. Maybe even ask her out on a date ,more like to the movies so that you guys can get better acquainted. If you really want to guarantee friendship you should just work your way into her group and act like your her friend. See where it can go from there ,but don’t be too pushy. As i said i am not really positive ,but thats what i want in a guy. I like guys who talk a lot too and are a bit clingish ,but most girls probably won’t like it so you shouldn’t cling onto her or call her everyday. hope this helps.
