Shoshoni Schools

Shoshoni Schools have been granted an exception request to the Statewide Public Health Order #1: Paragraph 5, provisions a through e. The request can be revoked if things change for the worse. Our buses must conform to national transportation standards and requirements. Transportation will still be required to conform to national requirements regarding COVID-19. Starting today, masks will not be required in our schools, anyone and everyone is welcome to continue to wear them, but they are not required in our school due to the exception request. Please respect those that continue to mask as they may have a family member they are trying to protect. This exception request also means that if we have a positive case in school the contact tracing could be far and wide. Remember that! Do your due diligence, continue to stop the spread, stay home when you don’t feel well, allow our kids the opportunity to receive instruction in person, and take care of yourself. We have been granted an exception, please respect that it is an exception and can be revoked. We are still working through logistics, if you have a question please call the school.

Arty Thursday was celebrated as part of The Week of the Young Child at Shoshoni Early Learning Center. Students enjoyed the story "Ain't Gonna Paint!" by David Catrow. Then they used their fine motor skills to cut out a butterfly, finger painted one half of it, and then folded it to make a butterfly with matching wings. They learned about the mathematical concept of symmetry while enjoying the glitter paint and fun spring art!

The 5th graders are spending the last few weeks in Library learning about coding, building circuits, and programing arduinos. This class made traffic lights yesterday. Looks like they are starting to get the hang of it!

Work Together Wednesday!! Shoshoni Early Learning Center students continue to celebrate the Week of the Young Child with working together! Today, the students were put into teams and given a floor puzzle challenge! They had a great time building new puzzles, and were so proud of the finished products! The skills that young children learn from working together are key to school success!

The high school greenhouse management class spent some time this week as teachers for two classes of elementary science students. Mrs. Jarvis and Mr. Ballou teamed up to provide some opportunities for each group of students to grow in their understanding of plant production. Mrs. Jarvis provided three science standards that included the plant life cycle, variation and inheritance, and planting zones and climate. The high schoolers then used these as their guide to teach the younger students by using the greenhouse plants, and their experiences in the class, to provide a more place based learning opportunity.

Shoshoni Early Learning Center celebrated The Week of the Young Child with Tasty Tuesday! They enjoyed Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and then made some tasty trees with bananas, grapes, and apples! Students learned about the letter t and enjoyed a visit to the 2nd grade classroom to see the tortoise.

Shoshoni Little Wranglers Preschool Students are celebrating The Week of the Young Child. Music Monday was celebrated with making plastic egg maracas. This was a great opportunity to incorporate counting, and meaningful connections to learn the letter e. The celebration even included a musical parade to show off their maracas!
