Did you know? Mr. Thayer teaches every #WatertownWay fourth grader at Douglas how to create using 3D printers! Check it out!
These #WatertownWay Douglas 3rd graders shared their thinking through a strategy called "Turn and Talk Squared". First, they share their thinking with a partner, and then each partnership shares with another pair! Their brains are hard at work - listening, speaking, and thinking!
Do banana phones take anyone back to the good old days? These #WatertownWay 5th grade Douglas Tigers are having fun with their friends (and food) at lunch!

If you have heard some peaceful strumming coming from Douglas Elementary, then it must be the #WatertownWay fifth grade music class students! Mr. Roley is teaching them how to play the ukulele. Exploring new instruments is so much fun!

To "cap" off Bullying Prevention Month, staff and students flipped their focus - watching for Upstander actions! When a kind or helpful action was noticed, students and staff wrote a shout-out with a challenge to reach their 500 Shout-Out goal! Within 7 school days, our #WatertownWay Douglas Tigers exceeded their goal and celebrated with hat day! Check out these UPSTANDERS making their school community great!
Honoring our veterans - today and always.
We are close to the winter months, but we couldn't help but share these "creepy" creations that our #WatertownWay K-3 Douglas artists created from The World of Jasper Rabbit in media class!
