“When you were in lower school, what was soemthing that you were excited about for fifth grade? How do you feel about it now that you’ve done it?
What was something about fifth grade that you were a little nervous or worried about? How do you feel about it now?
What is something about which you are still a little nervous or worried? What might you do to feel a little less nervous or worried?
What is something that you haven’t done yet in middle school about which you are excited? Why are you excited about it?”

When I was in lower school I was exited about having chocolate milk at lunch. I don’t care now because the 7th and 8th graders always get to it first. Also, I haven’t been consuming chocolate currently. I was worried about the quizzes and tests, but they get harder as the year goes by. It doesn’t scare me any more because I know we’ve learned all the stuff before the quiz. It’s sort of like a review. I worried about the stuff getting really challenging. I’m exited about trying out for the school play/ being involved with it. I’m exited because I like acting.
