Alan Christy on 30 Jan 12Host Ira Glass interviews a 14-year old named Annie, who emailed us asking if we would do a show about middle school. She explains why exactly the middle school years can be so daunting. Stories from the awkward, confusing, hormonally charged world of middle school. Including a teacher who transforms peer pressure into a force for good, and reports from the frontlines of the middle school dance. [This might be good for fifth and sixth graders to hear before entering middle school as preparation for the pressure and offer opportunities to discuss how to cope.]
