Last Friday, a week ago was our 100th Day of School. I asked the students to bring a collection of 100s. I gave them a little over a week to do this "homework assignment". Here are samples of what was brought to school.
I asked the students to share with the class what they did. G. said 100 heart flowers.
H. said " You know I went to the sea and when it was negative..." I think that meant ebb tide..
and tide pool.
When I asked H what her project showed, C. said "Look at the chart on the side, it will tell you what she did. Ten sets of 10s makes 100" :) See, the little chart to show 10 fish, 10 jelly fish, etc. "Thank you, C." said Ms. Adams.
C had 100 Abe Lincoln...
The children all came up with great Math/ Art projects. I have twenty of them on the bulletin board to prove it. :)

Thsi assignment takes me back to my own days assembling projects like this with my children - funny now it's nostalgic, then it was probably "you have to do what, by when?" Or maybe that was just the last child LOL.

I love seeing how other K teachers celebrate 100 days. We had our 100 days on January 30th. Cool post.

I smiled at this. In my last year in the classroom my class teamed up with a grade one class to 'count down the 100 days'. Every day we'd have an announcement about tne significant of that particular day. You know how crazy things get in teaching. Some days we were planned, others we weren't. We ended up celebrating our 100 Day on day 109 because we lost track!

The flowers and the fishes are so cute! I am impressed that little kids made that!

You make me miss teaching full time. I love all the projects and bulletin boards things you show.

Always loved the 100 days of school celebrations - we usually went the penny route.
