Ready for middle school
Transitioning to middle school is exciting yet challenging, bringing academic, social, and emotional changes. This half-day workshop helps 5th-grade girls prepare, boosting their confidence and excitement for this new chapter.
Program Details
Some workshop topics:
Handling unfamiliar situations
Protecting your mental health
Connecting to the 4GIRLS community
Identifying your strengths and building confidence
Handling social pressure and friendships
Adapting to multiple teachers and moving between classrooms
Navigating peer pressure around social media
This highly interactive workshop features a mix of whole group and small-group activities, many led by Jr. Mentors—high school girls who have already navigated the transition to middle school. Younger girls often feel more at ease asking their questions and sharing their concerns with teen mentors who can relate to their experiences and understand their worries about starting middle school.
