December 9 will be Anything but a Backpack Day. This is a chance for the students to use their creativity by using a household item in lieu of a backpack. We want to emphasize that student should not need to buy anything for this spirit day and what is brought to school is safe for the student and those around them.

 

This year Dalhousie School has decided to give back to the community by participating in the Salvation Army Toy Angel Drive. This toy drive is designed to bring cheer to low-income families with children aged 0-12. A box has been set up in the main office to collect donations. If you would like to contribute please bring your unwrapped toys into the office before noon on 15 December 2022.

 

We are in the last month before Winter Break.  A reminder that if your child will be absent for 5 days or more due to a holiday, an extended absence form must be filled out.  Please email dalhousie@cbe.ab.ca to request the form and have it submitted before your child’s absence.

This week we are working on:

Math: Do a survey using a pictograph

Spanish: Practicing writing questions and answers from tarjetas de vocabulario (Vocabulary flashcards) For example: ¿Cómo te llamas? Me llamo Liz. (What is your name? My name is Liz)

English: inventive spelling. What sounds do you hear? The teacher sounds out all the sounds in a word for the students to figure it out the spelling.
