100th Day Fun!

On Monday we celebrated our 100th day of school.  It is hard to believe that we are already in February.  As my baby bump grows, it is amazing how my students respond to me with being helpful and better behavior (for the most part).  Here are some of the fun things we did for our 100th day celebration:

I asked each student to bring in 100 edible items to add to our special snack mix for the day.  It was an interesting mix of things for sure!  Here are 2 of my kiddos adding their baggie to the mix.   They loved this special snack and asked if we could do something like this again.

Eating our snack...

 I bought these 100th day posters that the students got to personalize.  They had a counting by 2's connect-the-dots, a list of things they have 100 or more of in their house, I wish I had 100 ...., and a 100 balloon pattern of their choosing.  They loved having free rein on this project and the posters turned out great, with every one being different.

Another thing that I always do is ask the students to bring in 100 small items to glue down onto a grid.  I then hung these collections up in the hallway (sorry, forgot to take a pic of this).

Some other things that we did were putting 100 small stickers onto a gumball machine to practice fine motor skills, a "If I had 100 dollars I would buy..." writing activities, and a number grid fill in to 100.  I always enjoy this special day of school and I think my firsties had a good time this year too!
