100 DAYS?!?

100th day of school?????

How is that even possible?!? It seems like just yesterday we were walking into our classroom on the first day of school and feeling those first day jitters... Now look at us! We've got this whole first grade thing down to a T.

In true first grade fashion, since today marked the 100th day, this called for a celebration! SO, celebrating we must! And we DID! :) 

Here's a run down of our very fun, very hands on, very exciting, very 100ish feeling day!

The day started by crawling through the door...yes, crawling. ;)

We had to take a moment for LOTS of giggles as we looked how everyone was dressed. I mean...how CUTE are they?!?!? 

The teachers had to get in on the fun too! :)

Our reading time today was spent making a 100 day book, reading 100th day worries, and doing our different 100th day STEM stations. What could we make with 100 popsicle sticks, cups, pattern blocks, legos, and connecting cubes? FUN!

We also did a little writing. "When I am 100 years old, I Will..." SO funny to read! :) 

For math we spent the afternoon counting every way possible to 100, counting out 100 items for our 100th day snack, working with odd and even numbers to 100, then finishing up by playing some 100th day games. 

 

This afternoon, we also had time for a "100" art project. They turned out awesome!

                                           

I have to say it was a very successful 100th day! 

As I sit here thinking back on all that we have learned in 100 days... the progress that has been made, and the little people who I am blessed to work with every day, I can't help but smile (and get a little teary eyed). Your child has work so incredibly hard this year and you can most certainly tell their hard work has paid off! These sweet kiddos are an outstanding bunch who have made this school year one to remember!

This 100 year old lady is exhausted after this busy day! ;) SO...Ask your child tonight about their favorite part of the 100th day. They'll have LOTS to share! (If they're 100 year old brain remembers what we did):)

Happy Thursday!
