Sheldon completed the daily assignments that were given. Sheldon indicated that he was apprehensive of understanding the individual assignments while interacting with him.

Sheldon wrote out the four vocabulary words and definitions four times in order to comprehend the meaning and uses. This proved to be useful when Sheldon participated in the poetry jam. When Sheldon completed assignments on USA TEST Prep on the computer, he showed excitement and was eager to complete more that the allotted five questions that was given for the sponge/bell ringer.
