February 26, 2016 - Week 24

Greetings Dale Street Families and welcome back!

Dale Street staff and students returned from February vacation refreshed, ready to learn and excited for a full week of school.  We hope that you all had a wonderful break!


On Tuesday, Mrs. Foley's class and Ms. DiPesa's class celebrated that they are 100 days smarter!  What a great year it has been so far!


This week our students donned their fancy attire for a day at the Wheelock Family Theatre to see the production of Mary Poppins.  It was a wonderful performance! 










"Most Likely to Succeed" Film Screening and Discussion: A Medfield Community Event
Most Likely to Succeed offers an inspiring look at what students and teachers are capable of when given the opportunity. Directed by acclaimed documentarian Greg Whiteley, the film has been an official selection of two dozen of the world’s top film festivals, including Sundance, Tribeca, AFI, Cleveland, Dallas, Milwaukee, Sarasota, Seattle, Virginia, and Bergen. It’s been featured at leading conferences on education, including ASU/GSV, SxSWedu, Harvard/GoldmanSachs, and NewSchools Venture Fund. Audience members call it the most compelling film ever done on the topic of school.

The film will be shown on March 29th from 6:30-8pm, at the Medfield High School Auditorium, with small group discussions with Medfield Public School Administrators from 8-9pm. You are invited to see the film and join the conversation! This is NOT one solution to education. This film asks us to ask questions, which will hopefully lead us to our own answers. PLEASE VISIT www.MLTSfilm.org TO SEE THE TRAILER!

Parent/teacher conferences are just around the corner. Conferences are a wonderful time to check in with your child's teacher about their academic and social/emotional growth. Conference dates are set for Tuesday, March 8th and Wednesday, March 16th. Both days are half days for the students with dismissal at 11:35 AM.

Read Across America Day is a nationwide reading celebration that takes place annually on March 2nd - Dr. Seuss' birthday.  This year, the Dale Street School will participate in this very important day by bringing together students, adults, and books.  Each classroom will have a special guest reader.    In addition to special guest readers, there will be a school spirit day (dress in Dr. Seuss theme) and a ‘Read Across America’ challenge.  This challenge will have students record how many minutes they read on March 2nd (1 minute = 1 mile).  At the end of the day, library assistant, Mrs. Read will tabulate if our school can go from Medfield, MA to Los Angeles, CA (2,973 miles)!  
It is sure to be a great day!

This is an email I received from a Medfield High School student we helped in November.  Thank you so much for helping me make cards for soldiers who were away from home during the holiday season. With your help, I was able to send more than 300 holiday cards to a US Naval base in Hawaii. One of the Quarter Masters, Courtney, contacted me to say, “Thank you.” She said the cards really brightened everyone’s day and meant so much to them. Everyone loved the cards and well wishes so thank you again!  Bravo, Dale Street!

Thank you for reading!  Have a wonderful weekend.


Sincerely,

Steve

Dale Street Staff spent time at Tuesday's Faculty Meeting learning more about standards-based grading and formative assessments.  Special thanks to math specialist, Alison Wells for facilitating this meeting!  


This morning Ms. Sager's classroom became a Valentine Factory. Each student received $10 school bucks to use to shop for items to make valentines.  Students tallied their shopping list and purchased items from the Valentine Factory store.  It was great to see the students interacting in their roles as customer, employee, and creator. 





I hope that you and your family enjoy the vacation time next week.  Looking forward to seeing everyone on the 22nd!

The Dale Street School has decided to dedicate its second Spirit Day to collecting donations to support the Medfield Animal Shelter. Our school is doing this as way to connect to our community. We will be collecting items to donate to the shelter beginning Monday, February 8th through Friday, February 12th. The Medfield Animal Shelter rescues lost or abandoned animals and provides shelter until they find new homes. They depend on donations of food, cleaning supplies and cat litter.  For more information, refer to medfieldshelter.com.  Thank you in advance for your continued support.



To raise awareness for the Medfield Animal Shelter drive, Friday, February 12, will be a school-wide Spirit Day.  The theme will be 'Multiples' Day.'   Staff and students are invited to participate.  

Mrs. Bars' fifth grade students spent time this week diving into their fraction unit.  



Valentine's Day is fast approaching....very exciting! In an effort to ensure safety for all of our students and staff, we are requesting that no food/candy be sent in with Valentine's cards next week. Teachers and Head Room parents will be sending out information in the coming week to detail specific classroom celebrations. The Head Room Parent will be coordinating this effort.  Please keep food and drink to these four categories: something salty, something sweet, healthy fruit, and water.  Additionally, please be sensitive of allergies within classrooms.  The snack time and the Valentine's themed activities will take place at different times depending on students’ schedules. Thank you in advance for your assistance to help create a fun and safe day at Dale Street!
Ms. Bertschmann's fifth grade class used padlet to make observations and inferences this week. Great work girls and boys! Take a look at a few ....


"I think that it's good that people are playing sports no matter what color skin they have it shouldn't matter what color skin you have to do anything."
"In the magazine cover, it looks like they are showing all stuff he does, like that he goes on trial, since he was a big thing that everyone wanted to talk about."
"In the woman hurdles poster I am questioning: Why do women have to wear dresses when they are trying to do a sport but men can wear what they want?  In the statistics about sports in America I am questioning: why are there so many boys that do sports than girls?  In the wheaties cheerleaders why is there a boy on the big blow up box and not a girl?  In the Dorothea Duglass poster I am questioning: Why is she wearing a dress?  In the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings poster I am questioning: Why is there a girl at the top?  In the Athletics Poster poster I am questioning: Why is there a black woman playing sports? I think they must have not been allowed to play sports.  In the Babe Ruth poster I am questioning: Why does Babe Ruth have old dirty looking clothes."
Information about Strep Throat

What is strep throat?
Strep throat is a sore throat that usually develops suddenly and is caused by streptococcus bacteria that are passed around through nose and mouth droplets.  After coughing, talking or sneezing, these droplets travel less than 3 feet and often land on objects/surfaces, so are spread both through the air to those in close contact or by touching objects contaminated with respiratory secretions. 
*Most sore throats however, are caused by viruses and are not treated with antibiotics. A sore throat accompanied by a runny nose, cough and congestion  is more likely to be caused by a virus
.
Scarlet Fever, a fine red rash which feels like sandpaper and is more prominent in the armpits, groin area and creases of the elbow and knees, is also caused by strep.
It is also possible to get strep throat from contact with sores from strep skin infections such as impetigo.

Why is it important that your child received treatment? 
1.       Treatment reduces spread.  If not treated, your child may continue to spread the infection to other members of your family and other children.
2.       Some individuals who are not treated develop complications including: ear infections, sinusitis, abscesses in the tonsils, or infection of the lymph nodes.
3.       Treatment with antibiotics can often prevent rheumatic fever. Rarely, some children with strep infections later develop rheumatic fever which can cause complications of the heart and kidneys.

When can your child come back to school?
Your child can return to school after taking antibiotics for at least 24 hours and any fever is gone, without the use of fever educing medications such as Tylenol or Advil/Motrin.

What should you do to prevent the spread of strep throat? 
1.       Thoroughly wash your hands and your child’s hands after wiping noses and before             eating or preparing food.
2.       Wash dishes carefully in hot, soapy water or a dishwasher.
3.       Do not allow children to share cups, spoons, or toys that are put in the mouth.
4.       Do not allow sharing of food.

If you have any questions, please contact Kathy Thompson, RN at 508-242-8573
