Dear Future Second-Grader,
Welcome to second grade! I was so happy to meet you today, and I look forward to a super year!
You might be a little curious about your new teacher, so here is a bit of information about me.
I have enjoyed teaching children from preschool to grade five for many years. My favorite things to do
include reading, running, singing, going to yard sales, and being with my three children. Their names are
Matthew, Genevieve, and Bowen.

I’d like your parents to send me the email address(es) they would like me to use to communicate.
I’ll send them an email and invite you to meet me at the library one day this summer. That will be fun!
Your parents can contact me at miriam_morrison@wayland.k12.ma.us. You can check out my blog at
msmorrison2ndgrade.blogspot.com. You can also find it on the Happy Hollow website.

Writer’s Notebook Cover Homework
All of the contents of your collage must fit within the perimeter of this box.
We use writer’s notebooks in second grade and personalize them with special things about ourselves. Here is an example of a cover from last year:
To prepare, you will need to collect items for your collage. Use the guidelines below to gather artifacts that are appropriate for your notebook project. We will be creating the actual collage as an in-class art project.
Guidelines and Suggestions:
Bring all items into school on the first day in a big envelope labeled with your name.
The items used will be laminated on the notebooks and therefore will not be returned in their original form. In the past, some students have elected to take and print photos or scan/copy original items.
