How do middle school kids tell their stories about their friendships?

Some might talk about their first day at school. For example, getting lost in the big hallways or meeting their first best friend. It's a new world for them.

They like to tell ghost stories probably because it's exciting. Ghost stories add a bit of mystery and thrill to their otherwise ordinary school days.

They should be inclusive and kind. Don't exclude others because of differences. Accept different personalities and backgrounds. If a new girl comes to the class, being friendly and inviting her to join in activities can help build friendship.

Well, sometimes these unusual friendships form out of necessity. For example, if they are in a confined space like a small zoo enclosure or a rescue center. The animals might be the only ones of their kind there, so they turn to other species for companionship. Also, some animals are just more social and friendly in nature and don't adhere to the normal species - based boundaries. A friendly dog might approach a different animal and start a friendship that way.

The story might be about a group of middle school kids in a basketball team. They probably face various challenges like tough opponents, internal team conflicts or maybe difficulties in training. But in the end, they make a great comeback, which could involve winning important games or improving their team spirit significantly.

I'm not sure exactly as the title is rather unclear. It could potentially be about middle school kids building a physical wall like in a construction project at school, or perhaps it's a metaphorical wall in a play or group activity.

Kids often tell stories by using their imagination and simple words. They might start with a main character and build the plot as they go along.

They spread in different ways. Social media also plays a part nowadays. A student might post something about a gossip story on their private Instagram or Snapchat story, and then their followers will see it and start talking about it. Also, in group projects or team sports, students chat and that's another way for gossip to spread. If there's a story about a teammate not pulling their weight, it can spread like wildfire among the team and then to others in the school.

They might be scared. Telling ghost stories can make them feel a bit on edge while they're doing it.

Well, it might be a story that focuses on the journey of middle school students in a basketball context. 'Comeback kids' suggests that these kids face some sort of setbacks, perhaps losing several important games or having players injured. But then they rise above these challenges and come back stronger in the basketball season, showing their resilience and love for the sport.
