Synopsis

How to Cope with those Middle School Years offers parents of soon-to-be middle school students a means of coping with the transition from the pleasantries of elementary school to the mind-morphing realities of middle school. In a “how to cope” collection of survival tips, retired middle school teacher Frank Tilton offers parents knowledge nuggets he has mined in his own years of parenting and middle school teaching. Parents, especially those of current fifth grade students, soon will be asking, “Is there a light at the end of the tunnel?” In How to Cope with those Middle School Years they will discover both the short and the long answers to that question. But first those parents must find ways to keep up with, get ahead of, and outwit their own Susies, Sams, Sarahs, or Seths. To do this, parents will need to know what to expect and what to do before, during, and after middle school. And they need to know these things before Susie knows them.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Frank Tilton is a retired middle school teacher of German and English. He spent 19 years in Indiana middle school classrooms educating well over 7,000 teenagers. Tilton was at the forefront of “teaching across the curriculum" blending mathematics, science, and history into the teaching of German. How was this possible? He was first a career U.S. Air Force officer. The California native served NATO in Europe and air defense forces in the United States. Following a 24-year USAF career, Tilton launched his second career, teaching, having garnered one bachelor's degree in German, another in English/Journalism, and a master's degree in Radio/Television. Now retired and an author, Tilton has produced offerings as eclectic as his dual career. Most recent works are: Grappling with God and Grammar (a middle school textbook which uses the Bible to teach English grammar), Eternity, a scholarly yet light-hearted look at life’s biggest question ( an inspirational yet brain-teasing examination of both eternity and its nearly inseparable partner creation.) Earlier works include two novels, Birth Rate Zero (realistic science fiction) published first in Germany, and The Cold War’s Coldest Commander (Cold War espionage). He lives in Indiana and is married to the former Josefine Lohse of Germany and has two grown children and four grandchildren.
