Our students in Spanish II are practicing their speaking skills by pretending to purchase items from a market. Students were required to come up with a list of items that they needed to buy. Students then had to use the correct Spanish words to ask for specific items, question how much something they wanted costs, as well as pay for those items. This was a great way for our students to practice a real life setting that they would have to use their Spanish speaking skills. #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #spanish #spanishclass #sheldonhighschool

In High School Chemistry, students observed what happens to the temperature of water during the phase changes from a solid to a liquid to a gas. They collected temperature data every minute for about 20 minutes while heat energy was constantly being added to the system. Students then graphed their data, identified the different variables of the experiment, and gave a reasoning to the results they obtained. Great work Chemistry students! #Sheldon #Chemistry #orabs #sheldonorabs #leadOn #highschool

Quickwrites are done twice a week in English 10 at the High School. Students write about different topics during this time in a variety of different writing styles throughout the year. The length of each Quickwrite gets longer throughout the year to increase their writing stamina. They also have specific revision time to work on continually making their writing better! #LeadOn #Orabs #Sheldon #writing #improvement #englishclass
