Sheldon Community School District

The 7th graders have been working on solving equations. First the students drew models of equations, then used the Hands on Equations system to model them with manipulatives. This process helps students "see" the process when they need to solve using paper pencil. #LeadON #orabs #sheldonorabs #learning #math #handsonlearning

Our 7th graders at Sheldon Middle School have been busy honing their teamwork and problem-solving skills with an activity called "Building Towers" from CS Unplugged! In this hands-on experience, our students are working together to construct free standing towers using paper. It's not just about building structures; it's about collaboration, communication, and creative thinking! Great job 7th graders! #LeadON #orabs #sheldonorabs #sheldonmiddleschool #learning

The Champion Network is a mentorship program which links high schoolers with elementary students. The high school mentors, called Champions, are trained and given experiences in leadership and relationship building while the younger students, called Young Orabs, are given role models who make a positive impact in their lives. Champions & Young Orabs meet weekly to have fun, to build their relationship, and to learn ways to be Outstanding Orabs. Throughout the first semester, 11 Seniors were matched with 11 East Students. We hope to add more Champions & Young Orabs to the program for the second semester! #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #champions #mentor
