Reading a little each day helps you become a better reader. Our first graders have been working hard on becoming better readers each day as they read chapter books with friends.
Great work 1st grade!

Great work TK!

Kindergartners were able to see what happens when you combine different liquids together during a science experiment. Mrs. Bunkers had a dish of whole milk and food coloring set out for the students to see. Students took guesses on what would happen if they added another liquid to the mixture.
The students then added Dawn dish soap to the dish to see what would happen. The students were able to see that the dish soap repels the food coloring and turns it into a beautiful design!

Kindergarteners took the lead today during the East Elementary school assembly and taught the rest of the school what it means to, "Sharpen the Saw."
Sharpen the Saw is the 7th habit from the book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. The Sheldon Community School District focuses on the habits from this book each year to help our students learn how to grow as leaders in their life, at school and in the future.
4th Grader Eli Becker was also recognized for his leadership in doing the school announcements every morning at East Elementary. A lot of our students know the voice, but they were able to see who Eli was today!
Great Job Kindergarten!!

3rd graders spent time playing multiplication games with friends during math time. These games were multiplication themed games that helped reinforce their memorization of the multiplication facts that they are learning!
The 3rd graders had a lot of fun practicing their multiplication facts!

Kindergarteners are learning how to read more and more each day. Part of learning how to read is to be able to identify and know their heart words. Heart words are words that students are unable to sound out and need to know by looking at them.
The students all were given a new heart word "name". The students then did a scavenger hunt and wrote down everyone's new heart word name. The kindergarteners had such a fun time practicing their heart words.

These two students at East Elementary worked together to make a continuous chain of sight word cards as they practiced each of their words. A fun and interactive way to practice their sight words!
