Wow! What an exciting day we have had celebrating the 100th day of school! It was so fun to be greeted by some very sweet 100 year olds. The students participated in many activities to celebrate the 100th day.
First, the students presented their 100th day collection. There were so many interesting things!
We made 100th day trail mix. Each student got ten pieces of ten ingredients and filled in a ten frame for each ingredient. It was delicious!
We traced our feet and found our "100th step" in the hallway.
We made a list of things we wish we had 100 of and things we would not want 100 of.
We participated in 100th day stations:
Build a 100 piece puzzle
Make a picture with the number 100
a chick
a lion
best friends
a leopard, a water slide, and best friends
a flower, a fairy princess, and Fly Guy
a monster truck
Paityn made me out of her 100! Do you see the resemblance?
Build a 100 Lego structure - a big "Thank You" to Mr. Foval for letting us borrow his Legos from 1995.

This was the tallest the tower got!
Then it fell down!
Build something with 100 marshmallows
My favorite thing that we do every year is launch 100 balloons with all the first grade classes. It is so awesome to watch the kids get so excited! Each balloon has a tag on it asking that, if found to mail back to the school with a short note saying where it was found. We have had balloon tags found on the property of an couple in Mississippi and by a elementary student who was hunting in North Louisiana.
We ended the day by making a 100 fruit loop necklace.
I hope your child had lots to tell you about our 100th day celebration when they got home. Thank you for helping make our 100th day successful!
