Both male and female junior learners may start to experience puberty. This results in changes in their physical appearance, body composition and voice. Females may begin to menstruate. These changes continue into the intermediate grades.

Junior learners are starting to become more interested in their friends than their family. They don't like being different, they strive to belong to a group. Their self esteem greatly relies on their status in social groups and online (such as, how many "likes" their posts receive on social media apps like Instagram). This is similar to the experience of intermediate learners.
