HHS Weekly Activities!
Work Based Learning Spotlight: Sutton Diller, Business Internship at the Hiawatha Chamber of Commerce.
My responsibilities include filing papers, saving newspaper articles, organizing, and making ribbons for several different local businesses. I am observing Mrs. Kleopfer and her event planning skills. Being a member of the Student Council, I have always been interested in planning events and serving the community. I thought this opportunity was a great way to learn different, more efficient planning techniques that I can apply to the events Student Council puts on. I also enjoy getting to see the behind-the-scenes of some of our city’s biggest events like the Maple Leaf Festival and the Halloween Parade.
Work Based Learning Spotlight: Abby Kettler, Teaching Internship, Hiawatha Elementary School
I am doing my teaching internship this year with Erin Sudbeck and her first graders at the Hiawatha Elementary School. I help out with anything from making copies, grading papers, and reading books to the children. I admire the way Mrs. Sudbeck teaches to her class. She is never aggressive or short tempered towards them and always treats them with the same grace and respect she hopes to get in return from them. She recognizes their strengths and weaknesses and truly cares about each of these kids so much. I can see this in the way she interacts with and responds to them. This is the kind of educator I hope to be one day. Beginning this internship, I hoped to gain experiences to determine whether or not I wanted to become an elementary school teacher. This experience has greatly contributed to the making of my final decision to major in Elementary Education at Pittsburg State University next fall.
Work Based Learning Spotlight: Riley Scott, Teaching Internship at Hiawatha Elementary School
Some of my responsibilities are helping students follow along with the reading and helping them with their worksheets and tests. Sometimes I do a small group table where I teach them how to say certain letters. I also sometimes grade tests and help Mrs. Sudbeck get things done that she needs done around the classroom. What I observe in my internship is how to teach younger students and what they say kind of looks like for them. I observe the worksheets they work on, how they read, spell, and say words. My goals I want to achieve by doing this internship is to see if I really want to become a teacher for younger kids. I chose this particular internship because I love working with younger kids and I want to pursue teaching as a career.

Work Based Learning Spotlight: Zach Cappleman, Teaching Internship at Hiawatha Elementary School
I am doing my teaching internship with Amy Bearce-Plattner, the P.E. teacher at the Hiawatha Elementary School.
Some of the things I have been working on is teaching the kids how to play soccer and volleyball. Another thing is trying to see how a classroom environment works and how to further my skills in teaching. Some of the things I have learned from this class is that teaching takes time and patience.
Another thing I have learned is that all kids learn differently in different ways. For example, some kids like to learn by doing the activity live and some students learn by watching.
But all together this has been a fun experience for me so far and I hope to keep learning more about being a P.E. teacher!.
Hiawatha Elementary School would like to remind parents and guardians to have their student(s) wear their winter coats as the weather grows colder. We want to ensure students are warm for recess, and while we do have a few extra coats on hand, we did run out today. We know students enjoy the fun on the playground and their free time is much more fun when they are warm and cozy! Thank you for your help! #HESRedHawks
Congratulations to our Red Hawk volleyball players for be recognized as All League!
Work Based Learning Spotlight: Brenna Ward, Finance Internship at Brobst Accounting LLC
This is a picture of me entering data entries into a new system. I also do some bookkeeping and organizing. I observe how Megan interacts with her customers and how she runs her business. Through this internship, I am hoping to learn more about accounting and finance, and I am also hoping to figure out if this is the career for me. So far, it has made me a lot more confident about my decision to major in Finance at Kansas State University next fall.

Work Based Learning Spotlight: Abby Elffner, Finance Internship at James Scherer’s CPA office
I have done a lot of observing and note taking over the first quarter and am starting to help more with small jobs. Being able to observe what all of the employees do has made me more confident in myself as I begin to complete tasks in the office. I chose this because this is what I am interested in doing in the future and wanted to get some on the job training to be sure that I am making the right choice. This experience has helped me to realize that accounting would be the perfect fit for my future occupation. I am so thankful that I have been given this opportunity.

Work Based Learning Spotlight: Samantha Klocke, Brown County Humane Society
I am going to the Humane Society for my SDS. My responsibilities while being out at my SDS is taking care of the dogs. I go in and first help pick up all the dogs dishes on the north side (which is the side I work on). I give them their food and water while David brings them inside. The dogs are always different so we have to make sure that we look white board that is on the front of their kennels.
If they do have meds then it will say when they get them or how many times a day. I am observing how to take good care of animals when it comes to needing their medicine. I really like working with animals and I want to do it in the future. My goals to achieve during the SDS is to learn more about animal care, like what meds do what for certain animals and why they take those meds and all sorts of stuff like that. I chose this SDS because I just really enjoy working with dogs.
