2- Dress like a 100 year old
On Tuesday, February 25th, 2020, please have your come to school dressed like a 100 year old! Here are a few ideas:
- have your child wear glasses
- add baby powder to your child's hair to make it look grey
- boys: add a beard and /or moustache to your child using cotton balls
- girls: carry a big bag or purse, wear costume jewelry
Just google "dress like a 100 year old for the 100th day of school", click on IMAGES and you will see lots of great ideas online. Here is a picture of my class from last year.
3- February family project: 100th day of school t-shirt (WE WILL WEAR the t-shirt on WEDNESDAY- FEBRUARY 26TH, 2020)
To celebrate the 100th day, I am asking families to make a t-shirt/long sleeve shirt with 100 of something (fingerprints, foam hearts, feathers, pompoms, pieces of pasta, stickers, etc) for your child to wear. The deadline to send in your child's t-shirt will be the day preceding our 100th day: Monday, February 24th, 2020 (or you may send it into school before). There are many different t-shirt ideas online. I invite you to take a look. Just google "100th day of school t-shirt". THIS ACTIVITY WILL COUNT AS THE FEBRUARY FAMILY PROJECT.
Here is a picture of my class from last year with our 100th day shirts:
