Since school started, all of you are probably in a new grade. So I thought I'd come up with some helpful guidelines for new students at new schools starting a new grade ( It's hard, I know ). If these rules do not apply to your school, I apologize.
Rule No.1: Be open. Most new kids will choose to keep to themselves and act very shy, especially the girls. DON'T. This will not help you. Instead, try to talk to everyone in the class. Not too much, though. That's annoying. My point is, if you talk and interact with your new classmates, it'll be easier for you to find out where you fit, AND you might even get a new BFF!
Rule No.2: Pay attention. Yes, pay attention. To everything. Listen to your classmates. What's their way of speaking? What are their main interests? What are the social rules? Register all this in your head and adjust yourself accordingly. You don't have to stop being you. Just act acceptable and blend in.
Rule No.3: Be normal. If you have any weird habits, keep them to yourself and try not to show it until you have been accepted as a part of the class. Showing any abnormal actions will instantly make you the "weird kid" everyone avoids or makes fun off. Not a good way to start life in a new school. If that's hard, just try to not be the center of attention. This could lead to you being ignored, though.
So those are the 3 rules of being a new kid. I'm sure there are more so please leave them in the comments! I hope this was helpful!
