Mrs. Kruse’s 3rd grade mathematicians put their division skills into action with a fun, hands-on lesson using Cookie Crisp! 🍪➗
Students used the cereal to create equal groups, model division problems, and strengthen their understanding of division through a creative and engaging learning experience. We love seeing our Vikings making meaningful connections in math! 💙💛

Learning through play in Ms. Thibodeau’s VPK class! 💙💛
Our littlest Vikings were busy building friendships, practicing social skills, and learning together during free play and small-group activities. 🧩✏️
During small group, students worked on listening and following directions while practicing tracing their names and making early prewriting strokes. These simple activities help build the fine motor skills and pincer grip needed for writing and drawing.
So much learning happens through play, conversation, and those little hands hard at work! We love watching our VPK Vikings learn and grow! 💙💛
💙💛 Volunteers Make a Difference at JBE!
We were so excited to welcome our Viking volunteers for our Volunteer Orientations! Our volunteers give their time, talents, and support in so many ways, and we are incredibly grateful for their willingness to be part of our school community.
The partnership between our school, families, and community makes JBE such a special place for our students. Thank you to everyone who joined us and to all of our volunteers who help support our Vikings throughout the year. We appreciate you! 💙💛

🌦️ Wacky Weather at JBE! 🌪️
Last week, our 2nd grade Vikings had a special visitor! We were excited to welcome WPBF 25 News meteorologist Ms. Sheaks to JBE to talk with our students about the wacky weather that can be found around the world! 🌎☀️🌧️
Our students loved learning from a real meteorologist, asking questions, and making connections to what they are learning about weather in science.
A huge thank you to Ms. Sheaks for spending time with our Vikings and helping bring science to life! 💙💛
