🎉✨ Transforming classic fun into learning: It's not UNO, it's U-KNOW in Mrs. Wiley's class! 📚🃏 Our innovative twist on the beloved game now has students matching text structures instead of just colors and numbers. This engaging method makes learning about organizing and presenting information exciting and reinforces the educational concept that learning can be as fun as playing your favorite game. It's UNO meets a reading comprehension lesson, proving that the best lessons are the ones where you don't realize you're learning because you're having too much fun!

These projects have enhanced their digital literacy, public speaking, and teamwork skills—tools essential for future academic and professional success! 📚💻#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Three exceptional students from Claremore FFA embarked on a transformative journey at the Stand & Deliver Workshop. This workshop, designed to hone their public speaking skills, is crucial for their personal and professional development, preparing them for a future where clear and confident communication is key. In today's fast-paced world, the ability to articulate agricultural topics with poise is not just an asset but a necessity for leaders. Throughout the session, these students were challenged to step beyond their comfort zones through a series of icebreakers, engaging conversations with fellow FFA members, and reflective exercises in their booklets, focusing on their growth and learning. Such experiences are invaluable, equipping them with the tools to lead, inspire, and make impactful contributions in their future careers. Exceptional work, demonstrating the importance of public speaking in laying the foundation for success in life. 🙌🏽 #cpszebrapride

🌟🎤 Oh, what a beautiful morning indeed for Roosa Elementary's 5th graders as they embarked on an unforgettable journey to the Claremore Museum of History! 🌞 In celebration of Stuart Roosa, the astronaut and namesake of our beloved school, students delved into his life story, marveling at displays that spanned from Claremore to the cosmos. 🚀 They shared laughs over lunch, won special prizes, and connected with the legacy of a man whose journey to the moon aboard Apollo 14 in 1971 inspires us all. 🌗 Moments like these remind us of the courage and exploration Roosa embodies—a legacy that fuels our #cpszebrapride.
