Catalayah Elementary

Mrs. Roller’s class enjoyed moving around the class for their writing assignment. They worked on describing characters and writing words they can find around their classroom. 😀 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Look at what Mrs. Wards 1st grade class has been doing- We’ve been talking about occupations this month and nobody works harder than our sweet custodian, Lydia! Everyone in the class thought of an adjective to describe her and we posted them on her door. They also filled a bucket with extra snacks we’ve collected because they said she’s probably hungry after walking all over our school cleaning! 🥰 Lydia loved it!!

Constitution Day is September 17th (tomorrow). This morning at Rise and Shine our 5th graders performed a special song!! Constitution Day is an American holiday honoring the day 39 delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the United States Constitution. This historic date was September 17, 1787. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Ms. Henry’s 3rd grade class enjoyed their library time this week!! Students were asked to get in line after checking out books since there was another class coming after them. Once they got in line, one after the other they opened their books and started reading. It made their teacher very happy to see her students ready to read without being told or asked. 📚 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
