  1. The first week of 7th grade was fabulous! The students were bright and respectful, and I had a blast beginning to get to know them. I expect that this year, I will have a wonderful teaching experience with my 2012-2013 young scholars. I did learn that I might need flash cards to learn all of their names, though. Remarkably, I had no lows.

  6. My first week of 7th grade was suprisingly awesome. My low's were going over the rules over and over again. I also disliked in each class going over what we were going to learn. My high's were meeting all of my techers and seeing all ofmy friends. My fear going into seventh grade was that nobody i knew was going to be in my class.

  7. My first week was fun. The teachers are really nice. There were no lows. The discipline lesson will carry me through this school year. My fears are that we will get alot of homework. My expected sucesses would be writing good stories in LA.

  8. I had an absolutely amazing first week! My highs were that I love all my teachers, I made new friends, and I had a lot of fun! The low, we had to listen to directions and rules and it got pretty boring at times! One lesson I learned that I can use throughout the year is that I need to be careful about my friends and who to trust! Surprisingly, I had no fears! My expected success is to do well in all my classes and to get good grades! I'm aiming for all A's this year!!

  10. My first week of 7th grade was good. I liked that we got to sit wherever we wanted at lunch. Also, p.e. was fun. I learned a lot in all of my classes, especially spanish. I think that it will be a great year, and I will learn a lot.

  11. my first week of seventh grade was good because we barely did anything, the only low I can think of is waking up earlier than usual. the one lesson I learned was to be organized and do homework the first time and not wait till the end.my only concern is that I might not be able to keep up with some stuff and I'll get disorganized. I believe if I can keep everything organized I will end the year with all A's! -s thornton

  13. The first week of school was fabulous. I learned about all my teachers what they like and what they dont like.I am happy about what we have learned. I have the best teachers. I have made new friends in all of my classes. I have done fun labs and fun games. Lunch is kind of late though. I really like the members on my team and teachers their fun.

  14. My 1st week of 7th grade was actually very good. There were many highs and not to many lows. Some of the highs were seeing my friends again, meeting some new people, and getting to know my teachers for this year. One of the lows was the pre-tests in all of the classes. The one lesson that I have learned this year and i will keep for the rest of the year is to work hard at everything that I do this year.

  15. My first week of seventh grade was great! The teachers were really nice and respectful. I made so many new friends and some of them are friends from last year. I really had no lows at all. I still sort of have to get used to everything. Otherwise, my first week of seventh grade went great. I hope I have a great 2012-2013 school year! I also learned that it will take a lot of effort to get past this year. PD

  18. My first week of seventh grade was great! I really like how we have a different teacher for every single academic instead of only having two teachers like last year. My two connections are Band and Latin. My favorite out of both of them is band because I reallly enjoy playing the trumpet.I think the food here is better than in my elementary school.The only thing I dislike about seventh grade is how long the school day is.I feel like we have to be here for an extra hour everyday. I think this is going to be a very good school year at North Gwinnett Middle School!

  28. ☺ My first week of school ☻
    On my first week of seventh grade, I Learned to be the same as sixth grade, Because I already knew everyone and everyone will be friendly. My high were normal, because I didn't really expect a difference from 7th or 6th. I Didn't have any lows. I learned to be quiet more which is making everything more smooth. My fears are more of failing tests than anything else, and my expected exceeds are studing for my benefits

  31. My first week of seventh grade was a little boring to me but, i got to meet all of my teachers and I found out that they are really nice.This year to me is probably going to be easy.One thing that i will remember throughout this year is to always do all of my homework.If i don't i'll be in a lot of trouble.I hope that I will pass the seventh grade, but i belive that i can.

  50. my first week of seventh grade was great. I met lots of new people and saw a lot of my old friends from last year as well. I was a bit nervous at first but it all turned out to be great. I had no lows which I thought was amazing. One thing I learned was to always be positive and it will make things a lot better for you. So my first week of seventh grade was awesome just like the teachers.

  53. I had a great first week of school. I learned lots of new names and a whole new floor of the NGMS building. We did lots of fun activities and name games. On the down side, I had homework and had to go to bed early. I am scared of the drama and the hard cirriculum this year. I have some great friends and teachers so I hope that does not become two much of a problem. I really hope I do well in this seventh grade year.

  56. my first week of school was great i got alot of my friends in my classes. i thought it was going to be alot of boring lectures and rules. we did have some rules but not as many as i thought. i have great connections and lots of great teachers. i had only have one low. that is how fast the homework came. other than than the homework, it is all fun and games.......so far.
    I thought it would be like last year where we would have one teacher that would teach two academics, but it turned out that there is a teacher fo every academic even latin. i like how in band we got to play the first day of school.


    i think it will be a great year

  60. School is fun because being at hame is boring. Although school is sometimes boring it is overall pretty fun. My favorite class is PE. You dont learn anything and most of the time you just run around pointlessly. I think school is going to be fun.

  62. I feel the first week of middle school went by fast, and alot was accomplished. The highs were French, ss, and ELA, because I really like those subjects. I don't hate math, but I'm not crazy about it either. Science I like a lot. The lows, well the only low I have is the fact that my dad makes me do 4 hours of homework every day of the weekend. Overall, it was a great first week! -S.T.

  67. My first week of school was pretty expedcted. I had alot of fun and I was never bored. All of the teachers are nice, funny, and filled with energy. I think that the HIGH point of the week was seeing ALL my friends i didn't get to see over the summer. I also made ALOT of new friends. I think the LOWEST point of the week was probably lunch. I mean...it is just like 6th grade, so there is not much to say about it. So basically all i have to say is 1 week down...35 more to go. (:

  69. The first week of school flew by so fast! I was so happy to walk into homeroom and see A LOT of my friends there. Switching classes with four teachers has allowed me to meet new people and make new friends. Some of my old friends even joined Team 21! I feel honored to be in the Fantastic Four and i am looking forward to a great year in 7th grade!!!

  70. My first week of seventh grade was really good. I got to find all of my old friends and make new friends too. I've had a great time, so far, and I'm learning a lot of new things I didn't know last year.
    All of my teachers are really nice and have great activities too. I love when we do projects during class and at home because that's when I get to go out of my box and use everything I've got for that one project.

  71. I had a really fun first week of 7th grade. I made some new friends and got back together with some old friends I haven't seen during the summer. The only lows I had were the homework, which sometimes interferes with my soccer practices. I am excited for seventh grade:D -TW

  72. In my 1st week of 7th grade, time seemed to fly! It wasn't very long before the weekend- which a good thing. The one thing that will take forever to get used to is waking up in the morning! My favorite part of the week was restarting guitar. I played all summer, so that was fun. On the first day my schedule was all wrong, so on the second day, I got to be with all my friends!

  76. i loved thr 1st week of school. I met a lot of new friends and i saw my friends from last year too. i met new teachers and i also met new teachers and they are very fun and nice. we get a lot of homework but they give us homework because we need to study for test. i was so happy going back to my old connections like orchestra and gym. i had very fun this 1st week and i look forward to the rest of the year. 1 lesson i learned over the summer is to never procrasinate. if you procrasinate it causes a lot of stress and trouble. i look forward to this year. - S.L

  79. Seventh grade has been really fun! I love all my teachers, they are very unique and fun! The classwork isn't boring at all; it's very interesting! I can't wait to get further into the school year so that we can start on projects, because I really like those :) The one low was having to get up early ;)

  81. The first week of seventh grade was pretty fun for me. I got a pretty good idea of what seventh grade was going to be like. I really liked the improvements like the cell phone policy and how we do different stuff this year. There wasn't really anything bad about the first week. I know that I really am going to enjoy 7th grade.

  82. My first week of seventh grade wasn't off to a great start. I wasn't at this school last year so I only knew a few people and i didn't know my way around the school. Slowly but surely, my week got better. I met new people and even though I'm still not sure how to gett everywhere in the school, i have a pretty good idea of where things are.
    One lesson i learned last week is to branch out and just be yourself because then you will meet new people. This lesson will help me throughout the year because it's always good to meet new people.

  83. My first week of 7th grade was enjoyable. I got to see my friends and do some fun activities. Social studies, LA, and band were all my favorite classes and the best parts of my day. I was and am still tired a lot of the day because im not used to waking up at 7:30, and I always go to sleep late. I am enjoying 7th grade and will continue to do so.

  86. Super cool, my first week of 7th grade was. To do a bunch of cool stuff I got, but pretty dull, the first 1 or 2 days were. All, to do was listen and in band, got I, maybe play a few notes on the instrument. Pretty cool, wednesday through friday was, though. Social studies, my favorite classes are, language arts, and band. Hmmmmmm.

  87. The first week of school has been better than expected, and it seems as if the good trend is continuing. I think the most memorable thing yet has been the color test. While the lunches are a little messed up, all my teachers are very nice. I have high hopes for this year.

  88. My first week of seventh grade was awesome! So far my favorite class is French. I hope to visit France when I'm older to see my 'sister in law' Marie. As for lows, there's just the late lunch and me being sweeper the first week. It doesn't take long to get used to the four man team, and I like all my teachers. Overall, I'll just have to wait and see if 7th grade can beat 6th! -Walker

  89. Overall, I had a decent first week of school.The highs I have include PE, science labs and SS project.The lows I have are that this grade is busier than last year and I have a lot more studying to do. I currently do not have any fears. My hope for this year is achieving all A's.I have made many more friends, learned my way around a new floor, and am ready for a brand new year.
