Counselor's Corner
During the month of February, I will be doing lessons in the 4th grade classrooms on Multiple Intelligences. The students are learning that all students are intelligent, even if it is in different ways. We are connecting strengths and interests to future career choices. It is so fun to talk with the students about what they want their future careers to be. This may be a 4th grade lesson, but it is a fun thing to do with kids of all ages!
I am here for all of the students of Eagleville. If you want to reach me, you can call 610-489-5000 x41207 or email kkulp@methacton.org.
