6th graders wore a fraction, decimal, or percent around the Middle School for the last few days. As teachers or other students came up to them, they were asked what their equivalent decimal, percent, or fractions were. This was a great way to help our students memorize some commonly used fractions, decimals and percentages. #LeadOn #Orabs #math #sheldonorabs #sheldon #middleschool

3rd and 4th grade students will be taking the ISASPS Test in April. These are very important tests for our students and we want them to be at their best during those test. We are looking for snack donations for the snack break between tests. If you are willing to donate snacks to the school for this, please have them at East Elementary by April 1. Some snack ideas include: granola bars, cereal bars, fruit snacks, crackers, animal crackers, pretzels, etc. Thank you for your help! #LeadOn #Orabs #sheldon #ISAPS #testing #sheldonorabs

Friday afternoon was such a fun end to our week at East Elementary! 2nd-4th graders competed in a St. Patrick's Day themed Minute to Win It activities, while TK-1st grade participated in a St. Patrick's Day scavenger hunt around the school.

8th graders at the Sheldon Middle School complete a History Day Project each year. Students research a topic in History and create a project to share their information. The 8th graders then present their projects to the public on History Day Night and are judged on their project information, display, and presentation skills. Before their presentation night, the students were able to practice sharing their projects with some of the younger students in the Middle School. This was a great way for the students to practice presenting their project, as well as show the younger students an exciting project that they get to do when they get to 8th grade. #LeadOn #Orabs #sheldon #historyday #learning #presentationskills #leaders #history

The students had a guest speaker come to class to talk more about the Student Assistance Program (SAP). SAP partners with a variety of school districts to provide support to students. The Student Assistance Program is free and designed for assessment, brief counseling and referral.

Kindergarten students have been practicing reading, writing, and completing their CVC words. This student is using Seesaw to practice building CVC words on her own. Seesaw is used in many of our classrooms to help individualize our student's learning, as well as provide quick feedback for our students, parents, and teachers. Seesaw also allows for our student's parents to see what their child is doing in the classroom through the activities that they do on Seesaw. #LeadOn #Learning #seesaw #lessons #sheldonorabs #cvcwords #reading #engagedlearning
