Spanish II students have been studying Spanish terminology for different directional words and places found in a city. To practice these terms, students created a city map in Spanish and then wrote directions in Spanish on how to get from one place to another. Students then tested their Spanish speaking and listening skills and directed their classmates around their city map. #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #spanish #learning #sheldon #sheldonhighschool

Our sophomores attended the O'Brien County Career Day today where they were able to learn more about careers available right here in O'Brien County. Students spent the morning touring different businesses throughout O'Brien County learning about what employees do, training required, and career advancements available. Students also were able to listen to a variety of panel speakers who shared more about the careers they do. Students were able to ask them questions about their career in O'Brien County and why they choose to work there. Thanks to all of the businesses that welcomed our students into their buildings, O'Brien County Economic Development for hosting the event, the panelist for answering questions, NCC for allowing this event to be held in their buildings, and everyone else who helped make this possible for our students! #LeadOn #careers #learning #obriencounty #sheldonhighschool #sheldonorabs

Sheldon High School students Rachel Beesaw, Emma Boone, Valerie Cook, Sadie Dietrick, and Olivia Prewitt attended the WISE Conference at Iowa State University last week. Students attended four sessions throughout the day, heard two different ISU students share about their program and journey to where they are today. The students ended the day with a panel of ISU students, one of which was Sheldon's own, Lexie Merley! You might recognize Lexi Merley for her time on KTIV as an intern for the meteorology department. Overall the girls had a great day learning more about women in science and the careers that are available. One highlight was that the Sheldon group won the STEM Trivia Kahoot game! #LeadOn #Orabs #sheldon #sheldonorabs #WISEISU #STEM #ISU
