Middle School Matters with Phyllis Fagell, Author and School Counselor


Listen Later

Today, we’re talking to Phyllis Fagell, author of Middle School Matters.  Phyllis is a school counselor, and author of the book Middle School Matters.

In this episode, Phyllis talks about ten key life skills through the lens of middle school. She discusses the importance of good friend choices and the influence of peer presence, reasons why we want to help our kids get clear on their values, the effects of the pandemic on kids as well as ways to mitigate those effects, navigating teacher/student mismatches, the imaginary audience, and the value of identifying emotions.

NOTE:  This episode was recorded over the summer.  So a few of the examples are a little dated.  Podcast Time is weird.
