100th Day of School News

 100th Day of School!!!!!

 On Monday January 23rd, we will be celebrating the 100^th Day of School!  As a fun way to celebrate this special day, please dress your child as a 100-year-old (clothing, hair, etc.)!  Have fun and be creative! 

In order to help the children develop an understanding of the concept of this large number, we will be having 100’s Day!  We will be doing many activities on day.  For one of the activities, each child needs to bring 100 of something to share.  It does not need to be expensive.  The items need to be small and must be in a baggie or sealed container.  We’ll be using our math skills in an exciting way that the children are sure to enjoy!

Here are some suggestions of items to bring:

toothpicks          seeds               rice                  Cheerios

beans                 buttons            M&M’s              paper

yarn                  pennies             macaroni           Skittles

cereal               paper clips          Q-Tips             marshmallows

As you can see, the possibilities are endless!  To help make this process easier for your child, please make sure your child brings EXACTLY 100 items—no more, no less.

Thank you for your help and know that your child will have a great time learning about the number 100!  Please send in the items to school by Thursday, January 19th.
