Our sixth graders this year have been absolute savages. There interpersonal skills are the worst I've ever seen from a whole grade like this. They have no concept of basic class norms. Whenever they have something to say to the teacher, they just get up from their desks and walk right up to the teacher and start talking. Some of them are absolutely viscous towards each other in group work. And others have absolutely no tolerance for conflict and shut down completely.
I'm not really a sixth grade teacher, so I wasn't sure how much of this is just normal 6th grade stuff. But it seems like every one of their teachers is in agreement, and some of them have been working with 6th graders for over a decade. Someone recently mentioned that they spoke to a principal in another district and they were experiencing the same thing.
So I'm wondering if this is a bigger trend for the kids that were finishing elementary school in the peak of covid. Anyone else?
