I have something really cool to tell you. Mrs. Ritter's 5th grade class wrote AND PUBLISHED a book!!!! The class voted on what the book would be about. The students came up with the topics or ideas and then they had a class vote. The topic that won was.....animals!! Each student picked an animal they wanted to write about. They shared facts they learned about their animal and even drew a picture!! They each had the option to order a book and they even ordered one for the library so all Catalayah students can check it out and read it!!!! This is so cool!!! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Look at what these students made with their makey makey kit! Makey Makey is an invention kit designed to connect everyday objects to computer keys. Using a circuit board, alligator clips, and a USB cable, the toy uses closed loop electrical signals to send the computer either a keyboard stroke or mouse click signal. They have been using the kit with play doh to control lights and a buzzer. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
