Hello Room 212 Families!
We have some exciting things happening in the upcoming weeks! This week and next week 2nd grade is hosting a food drive! If you'd like to participate you can send in goods to be dropped off in the boxes by the main office. Please see the attached flyer for more details.
At the beginning of the school year we planted some vegetables with the help of the Medway Farm. Harvest Day is coming up on November 18th! Our class will be harvesting on 11/18 from 9:50-10:30. I am looking for 6 volunteers to help us on that day! Please let me know if you would like to volunteer as soon as possible!
Any questions please let me know!

Good Afternoon Room 212 Families!
I just wanted to send a message with a few reminders!
Book Fair
Our Book Fair day is tomorrow, Tuesday October 8! Please make sure to have your students ewallet set up. If you are sending in cash could you please just make sure it comes in in a baggie or envelope with their name on it.
Trading Cards
I just wanted to send a quick update/refresher on trading cards. Students are allowed to bring in their Pokemon/Sports trading cards to recess. There has been some trading going on that I or another teacher at recess has had to intervene with. Could you support having a conversation with your child that we will not be trading cards at recess and that they should go home with whatever they brought to school.
Picture Day
As a reminder picture day is this Friday October 11!
As always if you have any questions please let me know!

Good Afternoon Room 212 Families!
So far we are having a great first full week of school! I have a few updates to share with you. Please let me know if you have any questions!
Books Bags and Homework Folders
Each night your child will bring home their blue homework folder and their blue book bag (if they would like to). If you already have books at home the book bag can stay at school. Please make sure both the homework folder and book bag come back each day!
Summer Reading Log
I have received some Summer Reading logs back, thank you! If you haven't sent it in and were able to complete it over the summer please send it in. I sent home extra copies.
Scholastic Flyer
I sent home a scholastic flyer today. This is not for the school book fair, we are waiting on that date! I just wanted to send it home in case you wanted to take a peek at some of the new books and deals going on!
Bathrooms
I know the first few weeks of school can bring some nerves so most students ask to use the bathroom more often. We talked about good times to use the bathroom today. If you could also have a conversation about limiting bathroom trips so they don't miss out, I would really appreciate it!
Classroom Website
Click here to see our classroom website. The classroom website has information about our classroom, helpful links, curriculum updates, resources for home and all emails that I send out. If you have trouble opening the website please let me know.

Welcome to School Email!
Hello Room 212 Families!
I hope you are enjoying the last week of summer! Below I am going to outline some important information for the start of the school year. Please let me know if you have any questions!
First Day of School
Our first day of school is Tuesday, September 3, 2024. We ask that students who are walkers or who will be driven to school arrive by 8:00 a.m. Dismissal will begin promptly at 2:30 p.m.
What to bring!
Please make sure to send in reusable water and a snack everyday!
Transportation
Mr. Kelley sent out information for transportation in his weekly update. Click here to fill out the transportation form so I know how your child is getting home from school, especially on the first day of school! If you have already done this, thank you in advance!
Contact Information
Many times family members ask me for email addresses and phone numbers for various reasons. Having the email addresses and phone numbers of families is helpful; however, I will not give out this information without your permission.If you would like to share your information, please click here to fill out the family contact sheet!
Supplies
I have received some questions on whether or not school supplies are needed. You do not need to send in any school supplies; the school will provide it all. If you would like to donate tissues, hand sanitizer or clorox wipes that would be greatly appreciated but not required.
Please respond to this email that you received so I know all emails are correct. If you would like an additional or different email added to the chain please let me know! I'm so excited to meet your second graders and I can't wait to have a great year!
Best,
Meghan McNulty
