Ms. Deon Jones' English II students were engaged in an activity where they were tasked with arranging sentence strips in sequential order and label their function in the body paragraph. They practiced using the thesis statement of the introduction as a clue to determine what the topic sentence of the body paragraph should be, then determine which sentences serve as the evidence from the text, supporting details and explanation of the evidence. They used the representation of the items of a hamburger to represent the key components of a well-developed paragraph. This should help them to remember how to organize their paragraphs when writing.

What an incredible day for our business and engineering career-minded students!
Our group had the opportunity to tour Coker University and get a glimpse of campus life, exploring its wide range of academic programs, internship opportunities, and the benefits of small class sizes. They then had the unique opportunity to attend the 2026 Sonoco Annual Shareholders Meeting.
During the meeting, students observed how shareholder meetings work and even saw how individuals are sometimes paid to speak in an effort to influence voting decisions. They were able to witness the real-world side of business, corporate governance, and decision-making in action.
The experience didn’t stop there! Students had the chance to speak directly with shareholders and corporate executives, asking questions and gaining valuable insight into leadership, business strategy, and career paths.
To top off a great day, everyone enjoyed lunch together at Mr. B’s! 🍔🥤
Experiences like this help connect classroom learning to the real world and inspire the next generation of leaders, innovators, and problem-solvers. We are so proud of these students and the way they represented our school!
