100 Days of School!

Dear Kindergarten Families,

The time is fast approaching for our 100^th day of school!! 

Wednesday, February 8^th  will be our official 100^th day of kindergarten!   Wow!   Time sure flies…

                To celebrate with style and grace, we are asking the children to dress as if they are 100 years old.  Please do not buy anything new!  Any fun grandma and grandpa type clothing and props will be perfect! We will go on a funny parade!

At snack time we will be mixing up our 100^th day “gorp stew”…a delightful mixture that will be shared by the class.  Please send in 100 pieces of any of the ingredients listed at the bottom of this page for our stew.  *since this stew is to be eaten, please have an adult do this counting! J We will LOOK at them, TALK about them, and finally, mix them together for our 100^th day stew (which will be served by teachers!)  and EAT them for our snack!! 

We are also asking that the children bring in 100 pennies in a ziploc baggie. This is the child’s turn to count!   We will count, stack, add, subtract and compare these coins.  When we have finished our learning fun, we will donate our $68.00 to a good cause.  What a nice way to conclude a fun day!

Thank You!  Thank You!  A hundred thank yous!!!
