3rd graders knocked their Wax Museum project out of the park! Students chose a famous Oklahoman to research, wrote an essay, a script, created a poster and then lined the hallway and shared about their famous person with students and staff! It truly was a tremendous undertaking and the results were worth the time and effort and learning that went into this project! Great job 3rd graders, and great job 3rd grade teachers!! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

They have a ”sunshine” that starts on A and is moved through the alphabet when the whole class exhibits target behaviors. When the sunshine lands on Z, they’ve earned a reward. Targeted behaviors have been transitions and following procedures outside of the classroom. This was a great accomplishment! They were so excited! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
