"I wish I knew how fun it was so that I wasn't so scared and nervous on the first day."
"I wish I knew I would not be able to finish my whole school year, at MMS, and I also wish I knew that these teachers were the best instead of me assuming they were. :)"
"How hard it was going to be when we left."
"That it is not as hard as it seems and the teachers are all nice ."
"It isn´t as hard as it may seem just do your best and you will be fine and make sure to turn in your work on time or don´t forget to do it."
"I really wish that I knew the school layout. And how to memorize where my locker was, and how to open it. . . On the first week I was going into the science lab, when really I had math, or something else! And also on the first week I would have to have a whole map to know where I was going in the school, and my locker number, and the code! Looking back, I think that it was so silly because now I memorized the school, how to open a locker, and how to memorize all the numbers. Fun. . ."
"I wish I had known that you don't need to worry about tardies. I probably got 2 tardies a quarter but once I got 2 I really started getting to class quicker and when I did it felt like I was in the classroom a long time before the bell rang."
"I wouldn’t wish to know anything about six grade when I entered. It’s not because I already knew everything, it’s actually the opposite. I knew from the beginning that there was going to be stuff I didn’t understand, and stuff I already knew. It was like any other year, you're unsure at first but you quickly get the hang of it. I guess the only thing I would have liked to know going into 6th grade was that I was going to move so I could have done some things different."
"time management, how to do my locker combination, and how to organize my locker"
"That it was easy to get from class to class in 3 minutes"
"I think I would have liked to know that it would not have been so scary, and difficult."
"there are no tardies at the beginning of school, and there are teachers in every hallway to help with lockers"
"that it's a nice big building and that I wish I had known that it's a good place to be"
"I wish I knew that you have two ELA classes"
"That changing in PE wasn't that bad!"
"that it wasn't that hard"
"I wish I knew that it gets way easier as the year goes on and it is a lot less stressful than people say it is!"
