This week, at the suggestion of a 14-year-old listener, we bring you stories from the awkward, confusing, hormonally charged world of middle school. Including a teacher who transforms peer pressure into a force for good, and reports from the frontlines of the middle school dance.

In an effort to understand the physical and emotional changes middle school kids experience, Ira speaks with reporter Linda Perlstein, who wrote a book called Not Much Just Chillin' about a year she spent following five middle schoolers. Then we hear from producer Alex Blumberg, who was a middle school teacher in Chicago for four years before getting into radio. Alex's takeaway? We shouldn't even try teaching kids at this age. Marion Strok, principal of a successful Chicago school, disagrees. (6 1/2 minutes)

When Domingo Martinez was growing up in a Mexican-American family in Texas, Domingo's two middle school aged sisters found a unique way of coping with feelings of inferiority. This story comes from Martinez's memoir The Boy Kings of Texas. (11 1/2 minutes)

We realized that there are already reporters on the ground, embedded inside middle schools: The kids who report the daily announcements, sometimes on video with full newscast sets. Producer Jonathan Menjivar wondered what would happen if instead of announcing sports scores and the daily cafeteria menu, the kids reported what's really on their minds. Students at Parkville Middle School outside Baltimore, and their journalism teacher Ms. Davis, agreed to try out this experiment. (7 1/2 minutes)

Ira speaks with Shannon Grande, a teacher at Rise Academy in Newark, about a seventh grader who had all sorts of problems with behavior and hygiene and schoolwork. In order to help turn him around, Grande had to harness the power of peer pressure for good. This story came from Elizabeth Green, author of the book Building a Better Teacher. (7 minutes)

In this course, the students will learn the basic building blocks of the English language including rules of spelling and syllabication using seventy-eight Spalding phonograms; parts of speech; and simple, compound and complex sentence construction. Students are instructed in Spalding manuscript at the beginning of the school year and introduced to Spalding cursive the second half of the school year. In addition, students are introduced to narrative, informative and narrative-informative text and exposed to fine literature in all genres. Instruction is given in the use of effective reading strategies to increase comprehension. Students are taught to monitor their comprehension, make connections within the text, predict the type of text, reformat the text to recall key elements, and summarize the text by stating a main idea. Elements of good writing are introduced. Activities and assignments in spelling, reading and writing are clearly modeled and demonstrated to help the student gain proficiency

In this course, students will learn about geography terms, the Map Standard, and maps including the political World Map of the Twenty-first century, the physical map of North America and South America, and the physical and political maps of Europe and Asia in the Twentieth century. Students will learn through map studies, worksheets, class activities, and a combined history/geography research paper. In addition to being able to discuss their learning, students will demonstrate their understanding of these topics through the school-wide Geography Bee. The most reliable way to receive specific information about course work, including topics and timing, is on-line. For many students, the most challenging part of class is to memorize geographical terms and locations. To support your student, please consider discussing current news events in terms of their geography and discussing the geography of places the family has visited or would like to visit.

The Senior Thesis class is intended to introduce the seniors to the process and techniques involved in academic research and writing. This course will also provide help and assistance in completing the Senior Thesis which is both a graduation requirement and considered to be a capstone project for seniors at American Heritage School. Consequently, each student will be required to research and write a 6,000 word thesis on an argumentative topic selected by the student. Topics will need to be approved by the instructor. Research for the Thesis must be in academic sources and largely depend on peer reviewed articles and materials. Each student will present and defend their thesis before a panel of judges on March 16, 2018. Students will also write, edit, and submit an essay for publication by the school regarding their experience at American Heritage. Students will also perform other assignments and write other projects throughout the course. Students will demonstrate their mastery of the curriculum through the following tasks:

Scriptural foundations and principles, as well as the study of the history of the English language will be core to our studies this year. Improvement of orthography (penmanship) is expected. Spelling will be a focus, implementing Riggs phonograms and rules. The students will study prosody by reviewing versification and figures of speech. We will memorize marvelous selections of poetry from Longfellow, Dickinson, Shakespeare and other poets and sources. In our study of etymology, we will review the basics and emphasize word analysis. Dictionary studies will include many word studies and curricular vocabulary. Syntax (grammar) studies will build upon all that scholars have previously learned concerning sentence analysis and the diagramming of complex sentences. The full nature and extent of grammar will be taught as a foundation for success in grades eight through twelve at American Heritage School. We will use sentences from our history, literature and scripture which will be analyzed, broken into shorter sentences and recombined in terms of form and arrangement considerations. Composition will address creating essays, short stories, poetry, letters, dialogue writing, etc. Scholars will learn the Language Arts Writing Methods. Scholars have access to examples of great writing to help them review/learn methods here at our school. Daily and weekly assignments are given. Scholars will learn through written/oral exams and quizzes, papers of some length, essays, writing of poetry, scholar-directed presentations in groups and individually, displaying of talents in a variety of forms, celebrations of learning, class discussions, and a Master Project. Students will explore key thematic questions such as:

In addition to being able to discuss their learning, students will demonstrate their understanding of these topics through term projects/papers, oral presentations, written and oral exams, worksheets, map making, group presentations, displaying talents, class discussions, and a Master Project. The most reliable way to receive specific information about course work, including topics and timing, is through phone calls, On-line, newsletters, calendars, and school visits. For many students, the most challenging part of class is to consistently use 4 R (research, reason, relate, and record) principles in their lives and work; turn in work completed to the best of ability and on time; prepare for and complete a Master Project and memorize facts and principles. To support your student, please check the homework calendar online or in the homework folder. Please help with final proofing of written work, including, but not limited to Word Studies; T-Charts, and essays (without re-writing, please). Provide time for your scholar to read Literature and History assignments. 17dc91bb1f
