The Freshman Transition Network
Working together to transition freshmen & transform schools from the bottom up!
Preparing Now for Freshmen Later
What suggestions does the group have for making the connection between current eighth graders and the school/teachers they will have in the fall? Our school had a two-day "Summer Blast" last summer, but not all students attended...and probably the ones who needed it the most did not.

Hi Deanie,
If you are looking for a mid-year assembly program to recognize your students for doing a great job with the transition, I would recommend considering the I'm Awesome, But I Have My Limitations program as posted in June 2009 on this Ning. The program is educational and Fun for the students. Please let me know if you would like more information or if I can be of further help. Thank you, Ron

Thanks, Dr. Shapiro. I looked at the photos to get a sense of the I'm Awesome program. I plan to discuss this over lunch today with my principals. I'll get back with you after the discussion.
