WRJH is celebrating World Book Day📔 by asking teachers about their favorite book! If you haven't read one of these, you should! Coach Willard's favorite book is "The Puppy Who Lost His Way". It's his favorite because it explains the Industrial Revolution. Mrs. Worley's favorite is Little Women. It was the first chapter book she ever read! Mrs. Neighbor's favorite book is Charlotte's Web. It's the first novel that she read by herself! She grew up on a farm, so she identified with the characters in the book. They had pigs, cows, chickens & lambs. They also had a beautiful garden spider who lived in the hay loft. She was in 3rd grade the first time she read it. Mrs. Highley's favorite book is Hamlet. Hamlet is her pick for a thrilling literary ride, with a dysfunctional family taking center stage! Go check out a book and read it on National Book Day! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Continuing with Math Awareness Week, we're highlighting Ms. Phariss’ class tackling MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) testing! 📚 These students are flexing their math muscles and showing off their growth from semester to semester!

All students are asked the same number of questions, but the difficulty of each question is based on how well a student answers all the previous questions. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
