5th graders have the option to "Level Up" their skills throughout the year after they finish the required work for the day. If a student gets done with their required tasks they have some different enrichment problems that they can work through to earn points to level up. This is a great way for our students to keep pushing themselves to work towards higher goals as well as improve their critical thinking skills.

4th Graders at East Elementary had their field trip to Oak Grove Park in Hawarden yesterday. Students were able to learn more about some of the wildlife that lives in that area and explore along the paths through the park. 4th graders even had the option to touch a snake, which some were more excited about than others!

6th graders just completed learning about potential and kinetic energy. To test their understanding students completed the Roller Coaster Challenge. Students had to design a rollercoaster that had drop offs, loops, curves, and hills, but also was "safe" for the marble to travel on. Students then tested the different rollercoasters by dropping a marble down the coaster. They had to record the mass of the marble, the distance the marble traveled, the acceleration, and then finally calculate the potential energy. Our students did such a great job with the construction and calculations for this project!

8th Graders at Sheldon Middle School just completed their Mythology Unit in English. As a final project, students are creating Mythology Commercials that they have to write, record, and then edit to be watched by their classmates! The students are having a great time bringing these mythological characters to life in their commercials.

1st graders at East Elementary got to enjoy the beautiful day yesterday on their field trip to Mill Creek in Paullina. Students were able to go fishing, roast S'MORES, learn about the types of animals that live around the lake, play various nature games, and hike around the lake. It was a great day for a field trip!

Have you ever wonder what a popular food is in India or Norway?
Have you ever wondered what some popular activities are in France or Egypt?
The 7th graders answered all of these questions and more at the 7th Grade Cultural Fair this week at the Sheldon Middle School. Students researched different countries and then created a board presentation to share their information on their country. Some students even dressed the part and had a special treat from their country to share with those that came to visit their country!

3rd graders in Mrs. Arnold's class not only learned about the Rain Forest, they turned their classroom into one! The third graders then took over the role of teacher and shared what they learned with other classes at East Elementary. Theses students did an amazing job with the classroom transformation and sharing their information!
Great work third grade!

"A" is for Airplane!
Kindergarteners have been counting down the last few days of school with a different letter themed day. On Airplane Day, students were able to make their own airplanes and then take them outside to see how far they could get them to fly!

The Sheldon High School Horticulture Class planted flower baskets and hanging flower bags for the O'Brien County Extension Master Gardener Program.
Students learned about arrangements and how to plant baskets and bags. All of the baskets and bags that were planted will be sold at the Master Gardeners' plant sale in Orange City.
Thanks to Kate Stewart for organizing this project and Master Gardener Karen Appleton for coming in and teaching the class!

Chemistry students were measuring the enthalpy change in a recent lab. Enthalpy change is the name given to the amount of heat evolved or absorbed in a reaction carried out at constant pressure. The students had to measure the mass of substances and the temperature change of reactions to calculate the amount of heat energy that was absorbed or released from the reaction.
Great work!
