text: Making friends in middle school let alone any school is sometimes a tough thing to do. Many people struggle with finding things that connect them and there friends. After all that is what make a lot of friendships happen, the liking of something similar. So what better way to find friends then doing something you like after school, with at first maybe people you dont know, but have the same liking as you, to then being a friend with the same liking as you. I know even sometimes kids that aren't shy have a hard time making friends. Maybe thats because they dont know where to start other than,hi my name is ... i am .... i have ... my favorite... and so on. That kind of conversation can't go on forever, but if they have something to already talk about like basketball for example, you can go right off those starter sentences right into a real discussion. In middle school making connections and making friends is just the start of what we are going to be doing it for the rest of our lives, so why not become good at it now.
