100th Day

     Today we celebrated the 100th Day of School!  It is hard to believe that we have been in school that many days already.  To help celebrate this day the kindergarteners made bead necklaces using 100 beads.  They were to put 9 round beads and then a star bead to represent the 10th bead.  This pattern continued for the whole necklace, 9 round, 1 star, 9 round 1 star.  The students practiced counting by 10s up to 100 while making their necklace.  It was wonderful that the 100th day just happened to fall right in with our current math unit of counting to 100 by 1s, 2s, 5s, and 10s.
