Welcome 2020-2021

Welcome to our Second Grade Families for 2020-2021!

Whatever form our day to day "school" looks like in September, we know you will absolutely LOVE Second Grade!  Here is our Welcome Letter and Supply List.

If you are curious what our Learning Adventure looked like at the end of last year, here is the Calendar of Adventures.  It will of course look much different at the start of this year, but you can see that we will be teaching all of your child's favorite subjects with a lot of fun activities woven through.

Please contact me with any questions at this email address:  deborah_niles@waylandps.org.  I can't wait to meet all of you!

Happy New Year!

Hello Families!

Here are a few pictures from this past Thursday when the 8th grade students came back to Happy Hollow to work with our students. They worked in small groups to kick off the creation of our Public Service Announcements in IMovie.  Also, please check out our new Slide Show from the Presentation by the Acton Discovery Museum on States of Matter. It is to the left of this post.









Our Valentine's Day celebration is a fun one- we will make "mail boxes" and students can bring in valentines- hand made or store bought- for their friends.  Here is a letter that explains our tradition.

We are working hard to make the 2nd half of this year be productive and memorable for our students.  We welcome your feedback.
