100 Days of School

This week our class celebrated learning together for 100 days of school!

The class did four activities that helped them understand the number 100. From counting out 100 pieces of cereal and stringing them, to creating a grid of 100 stamps, to playing and organizing groups of 100 items (e.g., football cards, marbles, straws) to counting and recording how many exercises they did in 100 seconds, the students had a great time.

I also read aloud a book I wrote with my students from many years ago. At that time there was a teacher at our school who wore a colourful shirt everyday. One year, we took a photo of him each day wearing a different shirt to see if he had 100 different shirts. Here is a video of the first 50 shirts that we recorded.
