About the Book

Whether your child is entering middle school for the first time in 6th grade or will be doing so next year, you'll find loads of information in 6th Grade Ready useful to you and your student. Beginning with how 6th grade differs from 5th and moving through preparing them for 7th grade, this book will serve as your guide. It will describe what to expect in a variety of areas and what to look for as you navigate your child's physical, emotional, and academic growth. Most chapters conclude with a list of conversation starters, as using open-ended questions is the best way to get information from your student.

Review :
"What an amazing resource for 6th-grade families! The thing that I love most about this book is that it covers topics for the whole span of a student's first year of middle school. 6th Grade Ready starts with the difference between 5th and 6th grade, moves on to how to get motivated to come to school, overcoming challenges, and ends preparing for 7th grade. Everything in between will help families with real advice and conversation starters. You will be picking up this book over and over again!"-Ashlee Peters-Roberts, 2023 Pennsylvania Teacher of the Year Finalist "The 6th grade scaries can be an overwhelming time for both students and parents. 6th Grade Ready is an important field guide of information. Each chapter is thoughtfully written by a seasoned educator with helpful, applicable advice to help parents navigate the ups and downs of tween emotions, education, and friendships. Every parent entering into the 6th-grade arena would be wise to keep this on their nightstand for the year to come."-Michelle Faust, M.Ed., Literacy Coach "As a parent, grandparent, and school administrator with 43 years of public school experience, I understand the anxiety and excitement that comes with your child entering the 6th grade. It's a crucial transitional period when they face new academic and social challenges. This remarkable book compiles the collective wisdom of experienced educators, all of whom have firsthand experience with 6th graders. Their combined knowledge provides a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced by 6th graders and offers a holistic approach to supporting your child during this crucial phase of their academic journey."-Dr. Kimbe Lange, Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment and Director of Gifted Services, Oakwood Schools, Ohio
