JFG Kindergarteners engaged in a 100 day of school STEM experience! Our students worked together in small groups, collaborating and having conversations to achieve a successful outcome.
JFG 1st graders are on their way to becoming coping skills experts! They discussed helpful thinking and decorated helpful thinking (or positive affirmation) cards for their desks to talk to their brains each and every day!
Check out these highlights from the JFG School Counseling Department honoring National School Counseling Week!

Our 5th Graders learning all about the brain - our thinking brain, amygdala & hippocampus & how these all play a role in how we react & handle our big emotions. We used our hands to model how the parts work with each other & what happens if we "flip our lid."
JFG kindergarten students learn all about using coping skills to have healthy minds and bodies. Calm coloring always helps relax our minds!
Using fraction tiles to investigate equivalent fractions! These fraction detectives did a great job!
