Hello Dale Street Families,
We hope that you had a great week - we sure did! This week included the announcement that students could be mask-free at recess, we completed all of our MCAS sessions, had a fun spirit day, and participated in a whole lot of fun learning experiences. I hope you take just a few minutes to take a look.
Congratulations to these Positive Referral recipients. These #beproudbedale ROCKSTARS displayed our Core Values in and out of their classrooms. Thank you for helping make Dale Street a great place!
This week our Grade 4 students continued to learn about the hardships of Westward Expansion. Students had fun diving deeper with the Oregon Trail.
What an amazing treat to find on a Monday morning! Thank you so much the MCPE, all who donated, our wonderful volunteers, and our amazing custodians. We are extremely grateful!
This week, Mrs. Flynn's fourth-grade class took math outside. Students took time this week to create and interpret line plots. These awesome students ended math with a gallery walk to view students' work.
Dale Street Student Council Food Cupboard Drive

At our monthly meeting last Wednesday, Student Council members came up with the awesome idea to celebrate our First Responders. We are planning a special treat for them in June and students are encouraged to create thank you cards to thank these brave individuals for their service. If students decide to participate, cards are due in the office by June 1st.
With the warm weather ahead to close out the school year, please send students to school with a refillable water bottle with their name on it so that they can stay hydrated throughout the day. We have a large number of unclaimed reusable water bottles in our lost and found that may belong to your child- please tell them to stop by and look if you are missing one. Putting your child's name on it will ensure that it is returned if found. Students may refill their bottles using one of our two bottle filler stations. We hope to be outdoors as much as possible for the remainder of the year so students may wish to have a hat and sunscreen moving forward as well.
Today, Grade 5 students in Ms. Condon's class learned more about the history of Lowell and its mills. On this day. students participated in an assembly line simulation.

On Thursday, Ms. Johnson's class enjoyed a special read-aloud after completing their MCAS sessions. The students loved hearing Dale Street Reading Specialist, Mrs. Bassett read!
This week, Mrs. Fox's and Ms. Slachta's fourth-grade classes collaborated to create human line plots. Students had a blast collecting data and presenting their findings. Well done!
