100th Day Celebration

I'm a little late with this post since our official 100th day of school was last Friday.  However, we were celebrating Valentine's Day on Friday in Kindergarten so more families would more likely be able to attend the party on Friday afternoon as opposed to Monday afternoon.  We celebrated our 100th day on Monday- we flip flopped the days, talk about confusing our little ones!



I don't remember the 100th day of school being a big deal when I was in elementary school; of course, that was 20 some years ago so maybe I just forgot!

We created our 100 year old portraits in the morning, I'm so impressed with how they turned out!  They did a great job and were so creative with them!  I got the idea from various blogs, including Abby's Inspired Apple.

In the afternoon, students went to 5 different stations all pertaining to the number 100. 

1. 100 day crowns- I put out sequins I had and they had a great time decorating their crowns with little "jewels."  I wish I had a picture but we got them from the $1 bins at Target!

2. 100 legos- they built towers together using 100 legos


3. Skip counting by 10s to 100 (The picture is difficult to see but each bus has a number on it, 10, 20, etc. and students were to color in the buses, cut them out and glue them onto the construction paper).


4. 100 pattern blocks, they created patterns and designs using 100 pattern blocks

5. 100 chart mystery pictures


We had a great 100th day!  Only 74 more to go!
