100th day of school:
We will celebrate the 100 th day of kindergarten after March break on: Wednesday, March 9th, 2016. I have planned several fun activities for the week. Over the March break I would like the children to prepare a collection of 100 objects of some sort to share with the class. Some ideas include:- 100 marbles
- 100 stickers
- 100 cotton balls
- 100 pennies
- 100 candies
Be creative! Please send in your child's collection in a container or ziploc bag. The children will then play a guessing game to try and guess each other's collections.
The second activity I am asking the parents to work on for the 100th day of school, is to make a t-shirt with 100 of something (foam hearts, feathers, pomp poms, etc) for your child to wear that day. The deadline to send in your child's t-shirt will be the day preceding our 100th day: Tuesday, March 8th, 2016. There are many different t-shirt ideas online. I invite you to take a look.
