Today is #NATIONALRANDOMACTOFKINDNESSDAY The movement of Random Acts of Kindness inspires people every day. As a favorite celebration for many, people everywhere are enjoying doing these acts of kindness.

Meanwhile in Mrs. Devers 2nd grade class, after reviewing the week's assignments the class joined in a meeting and did a "Book Show and Tell." The students showed off a favorite book from their home and told the reason why it was their favorite. They discussed different types of books, book series and reading books in in digital form. Be sure to continue to check Google Classroom everyday when on Distant Learning. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Roosa Staff Spotlight - Miss Bart - This is my second year teaching. I graduated from NSU and currently working on my Masters in Instructional Leadership. I have a German Shepherd puppy named Murphy. It is an honor to teach in the same building where my education began and work alongside some of my former teachers. #ROOSAELEMENTARY #ROOSASTAFFSPOTLIGHT #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

#ROOSASTAFFSPOTLIGHT - Mrs. Boydston - I have enjoyed the opportunity to be a part of this amazing Roosa family now for eight years. It really touches my heart when I see one of my students catch onto a new lesson and able to excel. My hope is for all my students to be the best they can be and make a difference in this world. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

We've got another winter weather challenge for our Zebra families. Let's make some Ice Marbles. Put a few drops of food coloring or Kool-aid powder into a balloon then fill with water. Place outside and let it freeze. Depending on how big the balloons are and how cold it is, this will take about 24 hours. Hold them up to the light to see if they are frozen all the way through. Join Finley, Alayna & Brecken from Westside and submit your photos in the comments of the CPS FB page. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

All Claremore Public Schools offices and campuses will be closed for Presidents Day on Monday, February 15, 2021. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

For all you "planners" out there... the CPS Academic Calendar for 2021-22 has been approved by the Board of Education. It goes without saying, but just in case, this is official unless we have any unforeseen situations come up in the future. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE https://www.claremore.k12.ok.us/page/academic-calendars

Mrs. Brasher's 3rd Grade class meet today to learn about idioms. The class can now say that "Having Cold Feet" during this winter weather will not "Stir Up A Hornet's Nest" in their learning about idioms. Because idioms are a "Piece of Cake" #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Roosa first grade made 100th Day Trail Mix snack on Virtual Learning today. Their assignment was to find 10 random items in their pantry, grab 10 of each item while counting by 10. A fun way to count to 100 by 10! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

In 5th grade they hit their 1,000th day of school- so, we are writing 20 words for different categories- Adverbs, nouns, holidays, boy names, math terms, science terms, ocean words, girl names, video game names, etc... so, their assignment is to work alone, in groups, with their family, however to see if they can come up with a total of 1,000 words. If you count from K thru 5th grade it isn’t their 100th day it is their 1,000 day... #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Due to the icy conditions, CPS will continue Distance Learning, Thursday, February 11th & Friday, February 12th. Additionally, the child nutrition team will not distribute meals this week. Check in to your Google Classrooms and follow the instructions. Your teachers are working from home and are available to assist you. There will be no after school activities, including athletic practices or games. We will post updates on the CPS communication platforms. If you have not downloaded our CPS App on your phone, we suggest doing that to receive the most updated information. It's available through the Apple Store & Google Play for free. Be safe, stay warm, make a memory, and remember it's A Great Day to be a Zebra. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
