100th Day Letter Project

Greetings, Families!


It is hard to believe we are more than half way through our school year! That being said, our 100th Day of School is just around the corner. We will celebrate this day in class with lots of special activities, and we will also celebrate by creating a project at home as part of this week and next week’s homework.


Each student will be assigned to create a letter or a number. When we put all of our letters together, we will spell out “100 Days of Learning”  Each letter/number/symbol should have 100 items on it. These items can be anything from small drawings to stickers, candies, googly eyes, pasta, feathers, etc-- the possibilities are endless!

Students will come home with a directions sheet including their letter/number assignment as well as a piece of oak tag paper. When making the letter/number, be sure to make it as close to the size of the oak tag paper as possible, as shown above. We talked about drawing our letter in pencil first and making sure our items will fit on it before cutting out the letter and gluing our items down. 

Letters/numbers will be due back to school by Wednesday, February 1st.


Here are the letters we created in the past:

  • Hearts

Great Bay Discovery Center

Hello, Families!

Permission slips for our upcoming field trip to Great Bay Discovery Center on Tuesday, June 7th are coming home today!

Please have the permission slips signed and returned to school with $4 by Thursday, May 26th.


Many parents have shown interest in chaperoning this trip, and we would love to have you! Please send in an additional $4 for each chaperon in your family when the permission slip is returned. Chaperons will meet us at the Great Bay Discovery Center on Depot Road (please arrive there by 8:45, we will leave school around 8:40). Unfortunately, because we will be close to open bodies of water and taking part in several different scheduled activities, we ask that siblings remain at home for this field trip. This trip will take place from 9:00 am-12:00 pm rain or shine, so make sure to wear appropriate clothing and sneakers, as well as sunscreen and bug spray!

Thank you for your support, we can't wait for our trip!

First Book Order of The Year!

Today we came home with our first book order of the year! There are lots of exciting new books in the second grade catalog to choose from as well as from the Scholastic Reading Club website. You can place orders through the catalog and send it back to class or order online using our classroom code NB42C



Book orders are wonderful because not only to they allow families to order books at a special low price to have at home, but every order also earns points for teachers to use on books and supplies for their classroom! 

Our first orders will need to be entered online or returned to class by Friday, September 11th. Once all of the classroom orders are placed, it will take about 1 week to have them delivered. 

Happy Reading!
