Sixth grade part one : orientation
I remember going to school for orientation. I would be in Pod 2. My sixth grade class was split up into Pods. This meant that a group of kids would have the same English Math and Science class. This would be my first time rotating classes as well. This system seemed to be a good idea because all the teachers were next door to each other. This was also a good idea because the kids in each class had the potential to become great friends. I stay potential because it never really worked out. Due to social skills problems I never really had friends without disabilities from middle school on up. Let me say that at least I knew everyone name by the end of the year.
During ordination I would come to find that my pod was the cool advanced pod. Our pod had a mascot the sea horse which none of the other pods had as well as fun math. I did not do very much math that year instead we did art projects it was cool. My teacher was very old in fact back in 2003 he had some former students children. He is now retiring at the end of this school year 2011. I was the only one from my family to have him. Book gal went to a private school and Princess was in a different pod. He had some disabilities but that did not prevent him from teaching math science and PE as well as coach sports.
Anyway after orientation I went out breakfast with DD, we were friends all throughout middle school, I had no idea what w to as to come that year.

Dear AZ:
Really enjoyed reading about your teacher in the sixth-grade orientation.
And it is cool when the teachers are next door to each other.
How would you suggest kids in your position make friends? I think the social skills may be on both sides!
