At Catalayah Elementary, Mr. Winiecke’s music classes have been diving into the world of the xylophone! Did you know this percussion instrument has roots dating back to ancient Africa and Asia? Its name comes from the Greek words “xylon” (wood) and “phone” (sound), meaning “wood sound”. Xylophones are not just fun to play—they help develop rhythm, coordination, and math skills as students explore patterns and pitches. Our little musicians are learning how to make this timeless instrument come to life! 🎵👏 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Catalayah Elementary students celebrated World Kindness Day, by decorating rocks with kind messages! 💖🌍 They have hid them around town to share kindness and brighten someone’s day.

🌽🌱 "The Three Sisters" Roosa Elementary's Native American Club recently dove into the rich tradition of Indigenous gardening, exploring the significance of "The Three Sisters"—corn, beans, and squash. 🌽 Each plant has a vital role: Corn provides a natural structure for the beans to climb, while beans enrich the soil with essential nutrients. Squash and pumpkin vines spread across the ground, creating a protective "living mulch" that conserves water, prevents weeds and keeps small animals away from the precious crops. 🌱🍂 Inspired by these teachings, students crafted beautiful mosaics that capture the harmony and sustainability of this age-old practice. Their art celebrates how each plant supports the others, mirroring the values of teamwork and respect for nature. 🌧🦓 #CPSZebraPride #RoosaRocks #RoosaNativeAmericanClub

🦃 Just a reminder that CPS will be closed next week, November 25-29, 2024, for Thanksgiving Break 🦃 "We must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives." - John F.

Catalayah’s 5th graders had an insightful visit from Mr. Vaughn with the City of Claremore’s Storm Water Department!🌧 He shared how stormwater—runoff from rain and snow that flows over surfaces like streets and parking lots—can pick up pollutants such as trash, oils, and chemicals, impacting our rivers, lakes, and water supply. We can protect our environment and wildlife by managing stormwater and reducing these pollutants! 🌍🐟 Let’s work together for a cleaner, healthier future!🦓❤ #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
