1st grade students shared stories with their reading buddies!
Did you know, storytelling promotes a sense of community and belonging? It enables students to engage in sense-making, helps develop empathy and self confidence and facilitates learning.

Who knew stacking cups could be so fun!?
Kindergarten students participate in STEM challenges during Library with Mrs. Troyer. One of the various activities was to see how high you could stack plastic cups. This station was a hit!
Why cup stacking? Cup stacking encourages engineering skills, as well as critical thinking and problem solving.

Students in Mrs. Johnston's class worked together as a class to earn a milkshake/slush and movie reward party!
They have a ”sunshine” that starts on A and is moved through the alphabet when the whole class exhibits target behaviors. When the sunshine lands on Z, they’ve earned a reward. Targeted behaviors have been transitions and following procedures outside of the classroom. This was a great accomplishment! They were so excited!

2nd Grade students practice decomposing three digit numbers!
Although it is important for them to know what digit is in each place value position such as hundreds, tens and ones; It is also important for them to understand different combinations of that same number.
🧮Decompose- break down a number into parts
645
6 hundreds, 4 tens and 5 ones (600+40+5)
6 hundreds 3 tens and 15 ones( 600+30+15)
6 hundreds 2 tens and 25 ones ( 600+20+25)
Etc.
6 hundreds 1 ten and 35 ones
6 hundreds, 0 tens, and 45 ones
Or…
5 hundred, 14 tens, 5 ones
4 hundred, 24 tens, 15 ones
3 hundred 34 tens, 25 ones
Any combination of numbers added together to make 645.

Mrs. Shrum's students learned a lot about Dr. Seuss during Read Across America Week! They heard stories he has written, did crafts that included characters from the books, and even got to taste green eggs and ham!
Sounds like they had a yummy fun time!
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE






Students in Mrs. Tidwell's class researched the planets in our solar system and then created model planets or solar systems and presented about their planet in front of their peers!
We have to say their work was "out of this world!"
