Snyder Primary School

🐝 Congratulations to the Snyder Intermediate Spelling Bee winners! 1st place—Daniel Castillo 2nd place—Laylah Rodriguez They both will move on to the district bee on Thursday, March 2nd at 9am in Worsham Auditorium. We also want to congratulate ALL of the 3rd-grade competitors. Studying for the spelling bee takes a lot of time and commitment outside of school as well as bravery and focus to recall tough spelling words while on stage. #snydertigers #webelieveinsnyderisd

🎉 It's National School Counselors Week! Counselors educate, advocate, and empower. They work alongside teachers and parents/guardians to help students develop socially and emotionally and to help remove any barriers they have with learning. Please join us in thanking Mrs. Cowley, who works with the 2nd-3rd grades, and Mrs. Wall, who works with PK-1st grades. We are grateful for everything our counselors do for the staff and the students at Snyder Primary School. #webelieveinsnyderisd #nationalschoolcounselorsweek #snydertigers

Recess is fun for kids, but it is also an important part of the day. The cold weather is no match for elementary teachers! One of their many superpowers is developing creative and fun solutions to keep kids happy and engaged. Mrs. Soliz's kindergarten students clearly have fun during indoor recess! Even the CDC agrees: "studies have found that recess benefits students by improving their memory and attention, helping them stay on topic in class, reducing their disruptive behavior, and improving their social development." #webelieveinsnyderisd #snydertigers

Will you accept the kindness week missions?

Mrs. Leija and Ms. Vera’s 2nd-grade dual language classes have been learning about the “Los Tres Reyes Magos." Students in Mrs. Leija’s class created their shoes, and Ms. Vera’s homeroom brought a shoe where the three kings left a small gift for each student. We celebrated with a Rosca and Jon Luke, Andy,and Mauro found the figurine. Not only do students in the dual-language program learn a second language, but they also learn about the culture. #webelieveinsnyderisd #snydertigers #duallanguage

Mrs. Dominguez's Pre-K class celebrated Día de Los Reyes (Three Kings' Day). Yamileth, Joniel, and Mrs. Dominguez got the figurines, which means they will bring the tamales for Día de la Candelaria on February 2nd!

"2023, we've got this! " Mrs. Vera's 2nd-grade dual language students are ready to take on the new year with a positive attitude! #webelieveinsnyderisd #snydertigers

Mrs. Leija's 2nd-grade dual language class welcomed in the New Year with their high school helper Valeria Lopez, rereading the book "One Word for Kids." At the beginning of the school year, they read the same book, and each student wrote one word to help them have the best year. Today they each chose a new word to continue their best year. What's your word? #webelieveinsnyderisd #snydertigers

Have you read the story, "Stone Soup"? The Pre-K classes at Snyder Primary Elementary School have been learning about this European folk story. Hungry strangers convince the townspeople to share a small amount of their food in order to make a meal that everyone enjoys. What a great lesson about friendship and working together! Today they celebrated with their friends and family by creating their own “Stone Soup!” #TigerFamily #webelieveinsnyderisd #Tigernation #gotigers #snydertigers

On Monday, October 31st, we will have a costume day on campus. Students are allowed to wear costumes on this day. Guidelines for costumes: 👻 Nothing ghory (should not be bloody or scary). Costumes should not represent characters that are not school appropriate. (Example: Freddy Krueger, Jason, or other characters on rated R movies/shows, etc.) 🎃 Costumes must have appropriate coverage for school (no short skirts or shorts or tops that are not school appropriate). Girls can wear leggings underneath costumes to ensure coverage. 👕 If students are not dressed appropriately, we will call the parent to bring them a change of clothes. 🎭 Students will be asked to remove masks during class time but can wear them for pictures. We hope this is a fun day for students. Thank you for your help!
