On Wednesday, #WatertownWay 6th grade Dual Language Social Studies students at RMS had the fortunate opportunity to learn more about Egypt (ancient and modern) from a native Egyptian!

She also left the students a parting gift of a bookmark that included English letter equivalents of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. Thank you Lojin!

The #WatertownWay chapter of the National German Honor Society hosted its first Stammtisch since February 2020 on Friday, October 21st. Many students turned out to enjoy a casual time of speaking German around the table. “Stammtisch” in German is a reserved spot in a pub for a group of people who gather there regularly. WHS’s Stammtisch is open to anyone in the community or high school who speaks German. A heartfelt “dankeschön” to the staff at Main Street Café who served us as we resumed our cherished tradition!

This one is taking it back in time! #WatertownWay RMS 6th graders recently finished a unit about the Roaring 20’s. They researched famous people from the 1920’s and 1930’s and then came to a mock speakeasy dressed as that person. They had something to eat and drink, told the class a little about themselves, listened to some jazz music and watched a Charlie Chaplin film!
