Our 100th Day of School

Finally! It's the 100th day of school.

We have been counting the days in

school and putting a stick in a container for

each day. We make bundles of 10's. We now have 10 bundles. We just counted

100 !!!!!!!!

We are counting 100 fruit loops for a neclace

to wear for our celebration. "Oh, oh, there

are only 7 places to put the fruit loops". (Mason)

"That makes only 70". (Owen) We figured out

that three sections needed 20 and 4 sections

needed 10 fruit loops to make 100.

"100 is long!" (Catherine)

The question of the day is "When can we eat them?"

We all brought in a collection of 100

small objects. We estimated how long our train would be when we glued them on a long sheet of paper. "I can't be finished. There's still room on the paper". (Lola) "Yours is longer than mine!" said Cali

Everybody's 100 looks different!

We glued objects in groups of 10. We discovered we needed 10 groups of 10!

"I wrote 10 ten times, I think I'm done". I thought I was going to run out of paper". (Diego)

"Some don't look like they're 100. They are

so different."

"Some are way tall. Some are really short."

(Julliene)

We took a long time to study the collections.

We looked for the collection that was taller than

ours. Which one was shortest? Which collection was tallest?

THE BEST PART OF THE DAY WAS YET TO COME!

We had a party to celebrate! We had 10 bowls of food and planned to eat 10 of each. How can we eat 100 pieces of food???? "I can't do that, I'm going to bring them home." (Danny P.) Some kids decided they could never eat so much. One child thought he should stay home!

"I don't like raisins, can I skip them?" "I know....... I can take more marshmallow! (Jake)

My cup runneth over

Ms. Breines and Xilla thought the grapes were best!

"I think I can eat all of this". (Kaela) "It's really good". (Cali) "Yum!" (Juan)

You can see the calm and almost feel the silence.........F O O D......and of course, good company!!! The number 100 will never be the same.

Thanks to you all for your generosity!
