Thursday, February 12 is the 100th day of school! In Kindergarten this is a big deal! We will have a 100th day celebration. We will read books and try to find collections of 100 items in our classroom.
The children have 100th day homework due on Thursday, the 12th. They will need to bring in a collection of 100 of something. The trick is it has to be something that they can carry themselves back and forth to school! Ideas of collections children have brought in the past are pompoms, pennies, even Lego’s. The children need to be able to show how their set equals 100. An easy way to do this is to group them by tens or fives. Objects can be glued down on poster board, wrapped in rubber bands, or in bags, etc. Any way that is easy for them to carry and to explain why they choose what they did and how it equals 100. Be creative and have fun with them, it is quite a big deal to them to have been in Kindergarten for 100 whole days! Thanks for your help!
P.S. Due to a handful of food allergies, please do not send in any food items as part of their 100 collections!
