Another busy, but extraordinary week at #beproudbedale this week. Please take a minute to scroll through and take a peek.
On a visit to Miss Carlyle's fifth grade class, students used time to explore various ways to estimate numbers.
Congratulations to our Positive Referrals this week. Thank you for making our school such a great place! We are very proud of you!

In math this week, Mrs. Scott's fourth grade students collaborated by commenting on each other's math work. What a great way to model this important Core Value!
Ms. Bertschmann's, Mrs. Foley's, Ms. Condon's, and Ms. Costello's fifth grade classrooms all grabbed the minimal amount of sunlight light this week to investigate their shadows. Their focus: understanding the relationship between the Earth and the Sun.

| Thanks to Jack in Mrs. Flynn's class for reading today's book recommendation. Jack recommended Star Wars Complete Vehicles by Davis West Reynolds for "people who like Star Wars." Jack rated this book infinity stars! Thanks Jack! |
Students in Mrs. Ross' fourth grade classroom are participating in a postcard exchange. Our young learners will be exchanging postcards with classrooms in the US and Canada. So fun!
On Friday, students in Mrs. Lowerre's fifth grade classroom participated in an Intro to the Aztecs lesson. Students used the PTO funded Walking Classrooms to enhance the lesson and get some exercise at the same time!
Fourth Grade Physicals
If you have not yet submitted a current physical, completed in the past two years, for your fourth grade student, please do so as soon as possible. Massachusetts law mandates that we have documentation of a current physical on file for each student.
Nurse Substitutes Needed…Can you help?
Substituting will offer the opportunity to learn what school nursing involves and to interact with our wonderful students. The need is sporadic, but the rewards are great! A current Massachusetts RN license is required. Duties include: tending to the health needs of the students and staff, dispensing medication, and communicating with parents. A basic orientation is provided. Please speak to any of the school nurses for more information or contact the superintendent’s office for an application.
