Right now, War, we had 100 day at school on Friday. Here are some of the cute things I saw. One of the little girls glued 100 pennies to a cowboy hat, one glued 100 pennies to a toboggan, one little girl drew 100 lines in different colors on a white sweatshirt (use a ruler for the straight line)lol, one had beads on 100 safety pins and pined on the shirt. I'll try to remember more of them but these are the ones that just popped into my head.

I did a 100 day project with Mr. Cornell and it was his idea! We got 10 white sheets of construction paper and 20 different colors of that goopy type paint the kids use in school to paint on the easelboards. Anyway, he made 10 handprints in yellow on page 1, 10 handprints in green on page 2 and so forth until he did all 10 pages, each in a different color. Then we somehow bound the pages together, but I really don't remember at the moment how we accomplished that feat...all I remember is the teacher using it to count the handprints and say the colors. Good luck Kota and War....and Mware!!

We also celebrate 100 day of school, not as elaborate.. I teach kindagarten tomorrow, so I can get a script of some of the cute things the teachers do... like have the kids count 100 footsteps and see where they end up... As for projects, our kids like food, so they like to string apple jacks or cheerios on string, 100 of course, any type of pasta that is stringable is good... 100 M&M's, 100 feathers glued to a picture... LOL, how about gathering 100 of the "free" AOL CD discs....

100 ice cubes in a cooler? You could predict how much water that will be! 100 buttons sewn to something? A little time consuming... Draw a picture of what life will be like in 100 yrs? Or 100 yrs. ago? Dress up like you are from 100 yrs. ago! A map with a list of places that are 100 miles away? Learn to count to 100 in Spanish or another language? Sing 100 bottles of pop on the wall? Wouldn't the teacher love you...

Right now I'd like to add my {{{Pamy, Dylan and Sirbill}}}. Pamy, I might have done exactly the same thing in your place. I am so, so sorry. Wish I could wave a magic wand and take the hurt away.

buy her pooh's 100 acre wood! so sorry about the little pup, pamy. who would have thought about the nursing after formula? humans have wet-nurses... you gave him a cuddly life, short as it was, though, and you should feel good about that.

Right now you all, I never ever heard of this 100 day thing. But I think it is sooo cool!! Here are some ideas, (but not sure if you have enough time to do some of these). 1. Collect 100 emails from 100 different people. War, you could do that here, probably! 2. Collect 100 postcards from 100 people. Again, here might work. And you could use the school address if you prefer. 3. Get 10 jars of varying shapes and heights. Place 100 identical items in each, showing how the size of the container changes the height of the amassed items. (M&Ms, lifesavers, toothpicks, marbles, etc.) 4. Make a scrapbook consisting of pictures or specimens of one of these: (1) bugs; (2)flowers; (3)fish; (4) mammals; (5) places to visit; (6)model cars; (7) boy names; (8) girl names; (9) 100 famous people; (10) 100 (different)stamps. 5. Make jewelry or design a collage from 100 coke tabs or bottle caps. 6. Collect 100 pinecones and fashion a pine cone tree. 7. Cut out 100 paper dolls and design 20 outfits for each. (Whew!) 8. Make a (locked!) display of money equaling 100. (100 pennies, 100 dimes, 100 quarters . . . up to a $100 bill) 9. Make a calendar for the last 100 days of school. (Or the last 100 days leading up to your deadline). 10. Use 100 sugar cubes to design an igloo! I'm done!!

Oh, that makes me think of the Egyptian pyramid we made from sugar cubes. Probably was more than 100 though. Sugar cubes and glue, what a mess.

Right now, I want to say thanks guys! I knew I would get some great suggestions here! I knew this was coming up and I should have put some thought and a call out for ideas awhile ago. I really like the idea of 100 postcards, that would be fun, but since the project is due Feb. 6, I don't think I have time to collect that many, lol. I also want to avoid food, only for the reason that part of their celebration includes eating 100 pieces of food, and poor Kota was horrified at the thought of how much that would be. She didn't realize it would be 10 cheerios, 10 fruit loops, 10 skittles, etc. I also like the idea of AOL cd's, LOL. Maybe 10 cd's and doing 10 rub ons or stickers that suit Kota's personality and then mounting them on poster board or something? I will give it more thought and then let ya'll know what we end up doing! Mware, is this your first time doing this? Everytime I see the kinders gearing up for 100 day, it just amazes me to see them so excited about it. It's like a holiday. Each class celebrates their own ways and has their own activities planned. The older kids don't go to the extent that the younger ones do, but they do recognize it and have fun with it. This year they are putting on a show in the evening, covering holiday music for February and 100 day. I'm in Caleb's class once a week but they are keeping it hush hush to suprise everyone, lol.
