She explains how her class turned our Editorial Contest guidelines into a real-world product — a digital magazine students write, edit and design themselves. She writes: Middle school is rough. Students are growing and changing and figuring out where they fit in the world. When they speak, they’re never completely sure which octave will emerge. As if that isn’t enough, they have little control over what they can do or where they spend their time. They’re expected to understand algebra, consistently wear deodorant, maybe even learn a new song on the flute — all by Friday. And all while stressing about where they will sit in the lunchroom that day. It’s a perfect storm, made worse by the fact that they don’t believe anyone is actually listening to them. This makes it hard to convince students to take ownership of their learning. Why petition for a four-day school week when they will just be brushed off by members of their administration? Why submit their essay about the positives of video games to a local paper when they can’t even seem to convince their parents? Why put forth all the effort when adults so often just say no? It’s this skepticism that makes our magazine unit so powerful for my eighth grade English Language Arts students. It’s a chance for them to learn how to craft something that will make people listen.
