I teach sixth graders. In our district 6th grade is still part of the Elementary School (one of the few in our area). These kids cannot wait to move on to Middle School. They feel they are just too sophisticated to be in Elementary School. I wish they were around the other day, when a former student dropped by. She said, "You know Mrs. Luce, these kids don't know how good they have it. I would give anything to come back here." And what's more is she meant it. You're right most years you can find something endearing about each class, sadly this year it has been a struggle, and I find myself pining for a class I had four or five years ago.
