100th Day of School

Today we celebrated the 100th day of first grade!
(However, with all of the "extreme weather days", it was actually the 97th day of first grade.)
The day was a HUGE success!  The 100 item trail mix was delicious!  We had fun guessing the 100 contents of each person's mystery bottle!  The 100 bead necklaces looked great on the students!  Everyone worked collaboratively to build structures using 100 cups!  Everyone was so creative while making their 100 pictures!  What a great day!

Using 10 each of 10 ingredients (goldfish crackers, skittles, m&ms, gummy bears, chex, pretzels, teddy grahams, chocolate chips, conversation hearts, and mini marshmallows), each student created a trail mix consisting of 100 items.



We had a very special 100th Day of School snack.  Yum!

We had fun trying to figure out what each person in our class put into his/her mystery bottle.  Pennies, fuzz balls, , candy, and cereal were some of the items students selected.
 
Each student used 100 beads to make his/her own necklace.  Everyone had fun designing and creating this 100th day jewelry!






In small groups, the students built structures using 100 cups. 




We ended the day by making pictures using cut outs of the number 100.
