100 Days Smarter!

Friday marked the '100th Day of First Grade' in our classroom!

However we kind of stretched out the big event from Monday to Thursday last week.

As students entered the classroom the message was clear...

We kicked off the event with some super fun 100th day activities.

 

 We made froot loop necklaces using 100 froot loops.

 

 

Then we made trail mix with 100 snack items.

 

Finally we made 100's day crowns!

 

At the beginning of the week we set a goal to READ over 100 books together as a class. Every time someone read a book (at home or at school) we created a new link in our chain. For every ten books read we taped the chain up to the counter so we could easily keep track of how many more books we needed to read. Friday we met our goal... we are at 125 books and counting!

 

 We also set a goal to WRITE 100 words. Each student contributed at least five words to the collection and each student was given a category to ensure there would be no duplicate words on the list.

What a wonderful way to celebrate the 100th Day of School!
