2nd Graders Rock!!: 100th Day of School

Today is the 100th day of school for us! It is hard to believe that we have been in school for 100 days! We did a few fun things this afternoon to celebrate being in 2nd grade for 100 days. I needed a few more hours to do all that I really wanted to do, but instead, we did sorting and counting. They counted by 10's and put all the things around the classroom into groups of 100. They worked very hard and even got very creative when putting the items away!

Do you see the 100th day spelled out? So cute!

They made different shapes with their blocks.

Look at all the groups of tens they had.

They had a lot more than 100!

This group had a big job as well! They decided to count the crayons to see how many there were. In the end, they had over 600 crayons that they sorted by groups of 10! They did a great job sorting them and putting them away!

How excited were they?

They had the mini blocks and put them into groups of 100!

This group had the smallest pieces, but the biggest number out of the class!

They really had their work cut out for them! But they did it with over 800 blocks!

WOW!

They worked so well together and had a lot of fun seeing how much 100 really is. We learned that we can't buy a car with $100, but we might be able to buy some groceries with $100 or a nice outfit or a new pair of Nike tennis shoes. We learned that $100 would be nice to have, but in reality, we can't buy that much with it either!

I wanted to share a couple pictures from our PBIS dance party! They all participated in it and saved their money! I hope they enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed watching them dance!
