Teacher by the Beach: 100th day

Today was our 100th Day!

We started the day with brainstorming ways to show and make 100.

I busted out my skills on the eBeam. I'm still pretty new at this thing, does anyone else use it? I'd love to learn some tricks.

Then, we made a big banner of all the ways to hang in the hallway.

Then we did one of my favorites, 100th Day Art Gallery.

And we wrote about what they would love a a hundred of, and NOT have. lol. This is in my January Class Books set.

and of course 100th day trailmix. We ran out of time at the end of the day, so I didn't really get to really dive into the big math part, but they got the gist of it. :)

yummmm. I just took whatever anyone wanted to bring - nothing specific. But the kids had fun making creations out of them. lol

You can see what I did in 1st Grade last year in THIS post.

Happy 100 Days of 1st grade! It's crazy to thing we only have 80 (well, 77 because of the hurricane days) left of school. We still have SO MUCH TO DO - I have so many themes and skills to teach!!

Before I go into what we did today, here are some books that you can read that day...

The first thing we did was do our math board!

Then we moved on to our 100 Day Fashion Show! I rolled out the red carpet (some paper - lol) and put a background on the projector and found some fashion show music on youtube. Each kid brought in an index card describing their outfit.

Here's me and one of my teammates... I really went all out for the Fashion Show - haha!

Then, it was time to get the "party" started. We didn't go crazy or anything, but we had some fun.

One station was to create a picture out of "100" numbers.

Another station was to make their hats - 10 strips of paper, with 10 dots on each... last year, I did stickers. Dabbers are the way to go!

Another station was to build a tower with 100 cups. I saw this on Jodi's IG and was like, "duh! I need to do that, too!"

They started getting really creative and building walls around kids... that was fun to watch. lol

Another station was to write their page of our 100th Day Class Book.

The last 45 minutes of the day, we worked on our Ten Frame Snacks. For whatever reason, I decided we were going to use the giant tweezers to grab the food. haha...

The kids really liked that added detail.
