100 Days!!

I did, I did!!! And, it was a jam packed day, believe you me. We started the day with the Kindergarten teachers moving from room to room doing a 20 minute lesson with each class. I did a writing lesson with the prompt, "If I had 100 dollars." A variety of answers included limos, hummers, cats, balloons, candy, Thomas the Tank Engine trucks, and princess castles. They also drew themselves and what they would like when they 100, made a 100s charts, and put a 100 different snack items in a snack mix.

Then in the afternoon, we had even more fun. We started in our classroom. I asked families to send in 100 things with 3 clues about what they had brought. We had safety pins, buttons, pennies, pieces of rice, hershey's kisses, beans, toy cars, and marshmallows. It was a lot of fun to guess even if we had a hard time keeping it a secret until we got to it it after lunch.

After that, it was off to our stations! The entire school participated in activity stations 2 classes at a time. The teachers ran them while the students were led around by aides and other staff. We had legos, the badges, hand tracing, olympics, relay races, and my station: crown making. Take a look to see bits of pieces of our exciting day. At the end of the day, I could tell they were worn out because we were lining up and they were actually quiet. Basically, all talked out. It's a first. I was a little amazed that it was even impossible.
