1-2-3 Come Do Some 100 Day Activities With Me

When I celebrate 100 Days of school, I set up a variety of centers for my students.

100 day crafts, 100 day activities, 100 Day writing prompts, 100 Day bulletin boards, 100 Day bookmarks, 100 Day centers, 100 Day certificates, 100 Day GamesI like to involve a bit of art into at least one of their lessons, so I designed this “Cool To Be 100 Days Smarter” ice cream scoop craft, which involves counting as well as a bit of writing.

I’ve included several poster options for the center of your display.
Take a look at the PREVIEW for lots of samples.

There are 3 types of ice cream scoops, with 7 bases ( cones, cups, bowls) to choose from.

Children can also write numbers 1-10 on the 1st scoop, finishing with numbers 90-100 on the last scoop.

Although scoops look nice plopped in a straight line, suggest making a tilting ice cream cone, or perhaps one with 3 scoops then 2, then the other 5 on top of the double scoop.

Patterns come with & without numbers, so students can write in their own.

100 day crafts, 100 day activities, 100 Day writing prompts, 100 Day bulletin boards, 100 Day bookmarks, 100 Day centers, 100 Day certificates, 100 Day GamesTo add to the counting fun, there’s even a scoop with 100 sprinkles on it, (6 groups of 15 + 1 group of 10) which can be “hinged” to the top scoop with a piece of Scotch tape, then flipped up to reveal a student’s favorite flavor of ice cream, or another writing prompt you deem appropriate.

some game cards, a “Happy 100 Day!” color-me posterThere are several bookmarks and a certificate of praise you can give your students at the end of your 100th Day of fun. Both patterns come in color as well as black and white.

For your special snack that day, for continued math fun, why not provide ice cream with 10 different topping options.

100 day game dots and boxes, 100 day center activityToday's featured FREEBIE also has a 100 Day theme. It's an old fashioned game called "Dots & Boxes" that's a perfect partner center to practice a variety of math skills, plus strategy.  

The object of the game is to be the last person to connect the last line that will complete a box.

When you complete a box, you get to write your initial in it. I made the grid with 100 boxes. 

Well that's it for today. It continues to snow here in Michigan, which is lovely, but no sunshine and the wind makes it quite bitter outside.

To say I'm longing for spring and super-sick of the cold, is an understatement for sure. 

However, to be alive and healthy is certainly a blessing. Wishing you a warm and wonderful day.

1-2-3 Come Do A Few More 100 Day Activities With Me

This past week has been focused on 100 Day activities, and I think I'm finally done with my "To Do" list.  Woo Hoo!  I wanted to finish up with a few requests as well as some rather unusual ideas.   I hope you and your kiddo's enjoy them.

Jill, over in Oregon, needed some certificates of achievement for her kinders, who can count to 100 + skip count by 5's and 10's.  

I designed a selection of eighteen 100 Day certificates in both color and black & white.   Click on the link to view/download the 100-Day certificate packet.

One of my Y5's favorites, was their rip and tear 100 rainbow, which provides wonderful fine motor practice. 

You could also review patterning and have students choose 2 or 3 colors to make ABAB or ABCABC etc patterns.

The results turn out really pretty and make a great bulletin board.  Click on the link to grab a copy.  100 Day Rip & Tear Craftivity.

There are quite a few games in the various 100 Day packets, but I wanted to dream up something that teachers could plug in as a "just for fun" activity, if they had a few minutes. 

Young or old can play "Dots and Boxes;" it's a game that was designed by Édouard Lucas, way back in 1889 .  The game is great for the strategy it reinforces +  younger children get practice with the square shape.  I made the grid so that it has 100 boxes, perfect for your 100 Day celebration.  Click on the link to grab a copy. 100 Day Dots and Boxes game.

A few "thinking games" would also be interesting for your students.  Most of them will be pretty familiar with numeric terms such as a million, billion, and trillion, but do any of them know what comes after?  I wondered about really large numbers; so I surfed the net to find out.

See if your students can guess what a higher number might be called.  You could also have them guess how many zeros are in 100 quintillion, or have them research what the largest number is named. 

Webmath  was an extremely helpful site.  You can type in any number, click “pronounce” and it will show you how to say that number.

This would be a great independent computer center for students. Have them type in a number and then share their findings with the class.  

You could also use your smart board to show students what happens when you keep adding zeros to a number like 100.  Since I wanted teachers to be able to incorporate this lesson with their 100 Day activities, I looked up things by 100s and made an anchor chart for you.   Click on the link to view/download What Comes After A Trillion?

Most people know how much time they sleep, but are pretty amazed at how much time they really spend on the computer, phone, or watching TV. 

Run off the 100 hours journal (that's 4 days and 4 hours) and have students keep track.  A graphing extension is also included.  After this activity, challenge students to read more, and social network less.   Click on the link to view/download the 100 Hours Journal.

Finally, whenever I'm doing research, a few zillion more questions and ideas pop into my brain.  I wondered how you say 100 in a different language.  Over an hour later, I had a nice list of 20 ways to say the number.
