3rd & 4th

I am familiar with both grades, and I teach 4th right now. I previously taught 6th and 7th. It will truly depend on each person as to which grade they prefer, but I love middle school students better. To me, 3rd graders are way too needy, 4th graders are too silly, but 6th graders are just right. My 4th graders are so dependent and ask a million questions that it drives me nuts sometimes. I like 4th, and I love my students, but if I could, I think I'd go back up to 6th. I also like middle schoo curriculum better because it is more in-depth, and they already have the basic information before I get them. For example, I had to teach 3rd graders how to skip lines and put headings on their papers! That drove me crazy at first!
