In Ms. Simms' classes, students created their own menus and described their dishes using figurative language. They had to create, design and illustrate their own menus. Then we celebrated by creating our very own figurative language cafe! Students had paper plates where they had to order each example of figurative language off of their classmates menus, such as similes, metaphors, and hyperboles. We enjoyed drinks and snacks during our celebration and even rated each other's restaurants! Students loved this hands on activity and it helped them gain a better understanding of figurative language.

Mrs. Laderach’s social studies classes learned their Roman numerals! The students translated our Arabic numbers into Roman numerals and used toothpicks to “write” the numerals. They had fun discovering how to read and record the Romans’ numeric system.

1. Week 4 and 5 eSports Results: Rombout defeated Wappingers in Rocket League (4-1), Madden (2-1), and in Super Smash Bros. (5-0). Rombout also defeated Orville Todd Middle School in Rocket League (3-0) and Super Smash Bros. (4-1) Orville Todd then defeated us in Madden (3-0).
