Programs and Activities

The following are a few highlights…

Lunch Bunch

Students can email me to schedule a time to have lunch together and invite several students from their grade. Lunch bunches are an informal way for students to get to know classmates, initiate conversation with friends, and practice socializing and using good manners! Although it will be different virtually, we can still play "talking games" to have some fun.

"Proud to Be Me" Week

This idea was created in 2010 in of honor Katie Goldman, a 7 year old from Illinois, who was teased for her interest in science fiction, Star Wars and fantasy. The teasing became so intense that Katie wanted to conform to others’ interests just so the teasing would stop. Katie’s mom began blogging to ask for help to deal with her daughter’s dilemma. Thousands of responses came in to aid Katie’s mom and support Katie’s individuality. Since then, Katie’s school has held a Proud to Be Me Day to foster expression of unique abilities and interests. Likewise, Methacton School District counselors feel strongly about encouraging differences and celebrating uniqueness and will dedicate a week to celebrating this theme with special dress-up days and activities to promote diversity and acceptance.

Safety Rangers

Second grade students are invited to participate in Safety Rangers! Safety Rangers is an after school safety awareness program, sponsored by Victim Services of Montgomery County. Information will be sent out regarding when Safety Rangers will be coming to Woodland. Be on the lookout for registration information!
