📷 We got another #TBT class photo from a teacher who remembers the Class of 2021 when they were 3rd graders at Claremont. Who do you recognize in this Class of 2021 photo? Tag them or their parents. Do you have a class photo of your graduate? We'd love to see them. Upload them in the comments or send them in to jbrace@claremore.k12.ok.us. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

👩‍⚕️👨🏽‍⚕️Post a photo or give a shoutout in the comments to a Zebra alum, a family member, or a friend who is a nurse! At the end of the 19th century, "The Lady With the Lamp"— or as she is more widely known, Florence Nightingale — founded modern nursing. Thanks to her strict use of hand-washing and hygiene practices while caring for wounded soldiers in the Crimean War, Nightingale and her helpers reduced the death rate from 42% to 2% — ushering in nursing as we know it today. Today, we recognize the vital role nurses play in our lives by celebrating National Nurses Day. There is more than maintaining medical records and making sure immunizations are up-to-date. Thank you to the nurses who give hugs that cure the body and soul. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Could you identify a text structure? It is identifying if a paragraph is cause and effect, problem & solution, chronological order, sequential, or compare & contrast. Mrs. Crabtree's WIN class identified the type of text structures of a paragraph . They spent three days learning about each type and practicing with activities around the school. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Did you know?? A digraph is two letters that make one sound like, ch...sh...ck... Kindergarten students continue to work on digraphs during WIN time. Digraphs are important for our kindergarten students in particular as they are learning to read because if you did not know that the two letters in a digraph make one sound, you'd be unable to read many new words. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

From octagonal stop signs and rectangular doors, to triangular roofs and circular wheels—shapes are everywhere. Learning shapes not only helps children identify and organize visual information, it helps them learn skills in other curriculum areas including reading, math, and science. Lewis' Little Learners at Catalayah took their knowledge about 3D shapes and built cubes out of toothpicks and marshmallows! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
