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.

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 GamesCompleted projects make an interesting and colorful bulletin board.
I’ve included several poster options for the center of your display.
Take a look at the PREVIEW for lots of samples.

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 GamesThe craft is very versatile with lots of options.
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.

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 GamesBesides the ice cream craft, I’ve also included a writing prompt activity, where students compile a list of interesting and fun things that they've learned in 100 days of school.

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've also included counting worksheets, where children trace and write the numbers by ones, fives and tens.

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 Some More 100 Day Activities With Me

Counting to 100 on 100 Day is obvious, but simply counting can be a bit tedious.  With that in mind, I designed some quick, easy and fun activities to count your way through 100 Day.

skip counting activities, 100 day activities, 100 day crafts, fun ways to count to 100, 100 day crownI designed 100 Day "Funshine" specifically for a 100 Day celebration, however, you can use it anytime of the year, as I've included 4, different center suns.

The 10 strips of sunshine "rays" have 10 numbers on them. The counting by 5s and 10s are in red & blue, so children can visually see the patterns as they skip count.

For 1st grade standards, there are 2 additional "rays" for counting to 120.

skip counting activities, 100 day activities, 100 day crafts, fun ways to count to 100, 100 day crownAnother "Print & Go" craftivity that's an interesting way to count to 100, is the 100 Day Star Student Badge featuring 100 stars!

Simply run the star pattern off on yellow construction paper, and the "ribbon" template off on white.

Students trim and glue their "Star Student" badge together, then count the 99 little stars as they color them.

To make sure they've done that, have students jot down how many stars are on the big star (40) and how many are on the ribbons (30) for the left one, and (29) on the right, with the big yellow star of their badge, making the 100th star

Another counting option, that also reinforces colors, graphing, plus 2D shapes while counting 100 of them, is the Shapin' Up On 100 Day "Graphtivity".

skip counting activities, 100 day activities, 100 day crafts, graphing activities, 2D shape activities, skip counting by 5s and 10s, fun ways to count to 100, 100 day crownThere are black & white pattern pages, as well as a color set for teachers.

I've also included a blank 100, if you want your students to draw, dot or sticker, 10 different items (10 times each) inside the numbers, to make their own creation.

Completed projects make a sweet 100 Day crown.  Simply attach to a sentence strip or piece of bulletin board border.

The worksheet can also stand alone, if your kiddos aren't into crowns.

I've included a blank template, where students write in the numbers, as well as one with the skip counted numbers filled in, in both black line & full color.

Choose which one you want your children to have, then for some non-standard, units of measurement practice, have kiddos use their bookmarks to fill in the measurement worksheet.

Today's featured FREEBIE is a Rip and Tear 100 Craftivity.

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

It's that time of year when we're getting close to the 100th Day of school.  This was one of my personal favorite celebration days.  Over the years I had collected so many super-fun math and writing activities, that I decided to have a 100-Day celebration week, so I could get it all in!

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day crownsToday I'm featuring some of my favorites, which have been up-dated this past week. The 100 Day, "Flip a strip" booklet is a quick, easy & fun 100 Day "print & go" activity that your kiddos are sure to enjoy.

Children can do this independently during your 100 Day celebration, or as a whole group; read the simple sentences, students then take a moment to complete the task. When the booklet is completed, go back and skip count by 10s to count the 100 things.

You can also send this home a few days prior, to be completed and then returned on 100 Day. The booklet can simply be the "strips" or add a bit more pizzazz and have students staple it to the "color me" base.

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day crowns100 Day just isn't complete without a celebratory crown.  I've included six in the 100 Day Craftivity Crowns packet.  All involve a bit of counting practice.

Look closely at the pictures and you will see how students made 20 groups of 5 on the “100 Day Rocks!” crown, as well as 10 groups of 10 on the heart crown.

The crown with the circle "jewels" on it, has 104 circles and includes a guess-timation math activity.

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day crownsMy personal favorite is the “100 Days Smarter” pencil crown, where students write things that they’ve learned in the past 100 days, that they are especially proud of.

Choose one, or give children a choice
You could also make a sample of the “jeweled” crown, adding extra pizzazz with flat-backed rhinestones attached with glue dots.

Pass the sample around and give children 10 seconds to look it over, “guess-timating” how many circles (jewels) are on the crown, then complete the worksheet.

The child with the correct guess, or the one closest to that number is the winner of the “special” crown.

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day crownsFinally,  the 100+ One Hundred-Day Number Puzzles, are also easy-peasy and a ton of fun. I’ve included a huge variety that count by 1s to 10, count backwards from 10 to 1, as well as skip count by 2s, 3s, 5s & 10s.

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day crownsThere are 112 in all. Some are vertical, while others are horizontal and feature a nice assortment of themes.
Pick and choose your favorites to make a collection of choices for your students.

Print, laminate & trim the full color options and use as an independent math center
Use the black & white ones, so that students can color & cut up their own puzzle.

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day puzzles, 100 day crownsFor an interesting “craftivity” have students glue their puzzle to a sheet of construction paper.

Remind them to leave a little bit of a gap between each numbered strip, to create an especially cool mosaic effect. Completed projects make a cute bulletin board.

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day bulletin boards, 100 Day puzzles, 100 Day math activities, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day crownsI’ve included a “We are 100 days smarter!” poster puzzle, to use as the center of your display, along with a “My students are 100 days smarter! They know how to . . .” writing prompt poster, that you fill in with what you’ve taught your kiddos.

To mix math with literacy, have students complete the “Proud to be 100 days smarter!” writing prompt and glue it to the back of their puzzle, then suspend from the ceiling.

100 day activities, 100 day booklets, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day bulletin boards, 100 Day puzzles, 100 Day math activities, treats for 100 day, 100 day games, 100 day crafts, 100 day crownsBesides the full-size puzzles, I’ve also designed a set of “Happy 100 Day!” 4-on-a-page mini puzzles, as an inexpensive little surprise for your students.

They feature a vibrant, rainbow-colored 100, with 2 options: numbers 1-10, as well as skip counting by 10s to 100.

Print, trim, and put in a Snack Baggie, then attach the “Here is a little something to do because I’m simply so proud of you!” header. 

Today's featured FREEBIE is also a quick, easy & fun "print & go" activity. The "Dots 'n Boxes"  game was first published in 1889 by Édouard Lucas.

cover 100 day dots n boxesI thought it would make a quick, easy and fun game of strategy for students to play anytime, but specifically for 100 Day, as I made a 100-box grid.

Children choose a partner and take turns connecting 2 dots by making a line between them.
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.

MeWhen all 100 boxes have been made, students count up how many they have with their initial in them. The one with the most boxes is the winner. 

Well that's it for today. I hope you found something useful here to make your 100-Day celebration especially fun. 

"Educating the mind, without educating the heart, is no education at all." -Aristotle

These 100 Day puzzles are a quick, easy and fun way to help students count and sequence numbers 1-10, count backwards from 10 to 1, as well as skip count by 10s to 100. 

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

There is only so much one can accomplish in a day, and so many super-fun 100 Day ideas, that I decided long ago to do 100-Day activities over several days, culminating with an extra-special celebration on our 100th day of school.

Run these "I'm 100 Days Smarter, and That's Something to Smile About!"  100-Day smilie-face bookmarks off, on a variety of pastel-colored construction paper.  Each child chooses one, then counts by 1s to 100, as they fill them in. When everyone is done, count the rows by 5s to also reach 100.  The master template has 5 bookmarks on a page for quick printing.

For February, it was the number 100 for our 100th Day of school celebration.

Ripping & tearing is a great fine motor skill.  Simply cut construction paper strips, in a variety of colors. 

I made mine an inch wide.  Students can choose two colors if you want them to do an ABAB pattern, or lots of colors as this child did in the pictured sample. 

I had my Y5's rip up piles of each color, and then using a glue stick, they rubbed the numbers and stuck the torn pieces of paper to them. Completed projects make a wonderful 100 Day bulletin board.

There are 15 puzzles, which help students practice counting from 1-10, count backwards from 10 to 1, as well as skip count by 10s to 100

Treat them as an independent puzzle-center activity, or do as a whole group activity.  For an interesting 100 Day bulletin board, have students glue their puzzle pieces onto a sheet of construction paper.  For an awesome mosaic effect, have children leave a little space in-between each piece.

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

If you're like me, you've started looking for a few more quick, easy and fun ideas to add to your collection of 100-Day activities. One Hundred Day was one of my favorite celebrations, second only to Valentine's Day, which was my favorite.

Everything we did related to that number, from reading 100-Day stories, to making class books with writing prompts about 100 and of course lots of super-fun math activities, which my Y5's really enjoyed. 

100 day activities, 100 day lessons, count to 100 videos, 100 day crafts, 100 day bookmarks, skip counting by 10s, non standard unit of measurement activities, ideas for 100 day, skip counting by 2's, 3's, 5's, 10's, 100 day pizza, pizza with 100 toppings, easy reader booklet for 100 day, 100 day crafts, 100 day pizza, patterning, sorting shapes mat,hexagon, octagon, pentagon shape activities,  2D shape lessons, common core state standards for kindergarten, free common core state standard lessons, free CCSS lessons for kindergarten and 1st grade,Counting that high can be a bit tedious for a young five, so I tried to think of a variety of ways for them to practice.  Watching numbers flash on a screen to some catchy music, is a visually fun way to count.  I spent about an hour looking at short "count to 100" videos on YouTube. 

Here are a few of the best ones:  "We Can Count To 100" (1:52) simply flashes colorful numbers as they count in a sing-song way.  "The Big Numbers Song" also counts to 100.  I especially like this 3:11 minute video clip, because the voice is soft and soothing, and also shows the number words, which we were also working on.

Dr. Jean keeps students engaged with her (2:17 minute) Macarena Math Time counting to 100 song, by showing and repeating the Macarena dance movements, as she counts to 100.  She also breaks up the counting, by ending each segment of 10 with: "That makes ______ 10s."  i.e. ". . . 78. 79, 80! That makes 8 tens."

If you have a superhero theme going on in your classroom, your kiddos will enjoy the (2:27 minute) "Count To 100 Superhero"  clip.  It has a catchy beat that your students will enjoy.  Finally, click on the link for  a counting to 100s video with a jazzy beat.  With all of the bright colors, your little ones will find it visually appealing.

With that in mind, I just finished designing some quilt block bookmarks yesterday. 

I've included a blank template, where students write in the numbers, as well as one with the skip counted numbers filled in, in both black line and full color.

There are several templates to choose from.  If your kiddo's are learning to skip count by 10's to 100 then use that pizza pattern.  If they're also counting to 100 by 5's, you can give them a choice.

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.

1-2-3 Come Celebrate 100 Day With Me

Even though 100 Day was like a party for my Y5's,  we still covered all of our subject areas and standards.  I spent countless hours designing things that would fit the various subjects throughout our day using that particular theme.

Students choose a partner or work in groups of 3-4 taking turns rolling one dice.  Whatever number they roll, they trace the digital time and then write that number on their analog clock. 

After they have filled in numbers 1-6 (times to the hour) they roll 2 dice and add them together to get numbers 7-12.  The first one to complete their "It's Time To Celebrate" recording sheet, is the winner and receives a certificate of praise.

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

presidents day clipBecause Presidents' Day is in February, and presidents are often featured on our currency, I taught a themed-unit on money at this time.   Identifying coins and knowing their values, was a Y5 report card standard

As a motivational incentive, I showed them the play money I had run off on light green paper.  I've included a template in the Making Cents packet, so you can make some for your kiddo's too.  Trust me, they will get very excited over this!

My Y5's earned bills through out the day for completing tasks, winning/participating in timed-tasks etc.  At the end of the day, students could trade one of their bills for one of their friends. 

Hopefully they had earned enough of their own, to collect one from each classmate.  I never had a child who hadn't earned enough, as my Y5's really enjoyed our 100-Day activities. Everyone stayed focused and on-task.

If you didn't see the 100 Day crown that incorporated 100 shapes (click on the link to grab it.) In the 100-Day Crown packet, I've included 3 simpler crowns.

Since quite a few people celebrate 100 Day in February, I designed a heart-shaped crown.  Run off on a variety of colors of construction paper.  Students trim.  Using 10 different colored markers, children make 10 groups of 10 dots, inside the 100 number; trim and glue to the center of the heart. 

Staple the heart to a sentence strip or bulletin board boarder to make an easy 100 Day crown. If your kiddo's are in PK, you can skip the counting by 10's to 100 dot portion, and simply have them color the number. 

100 Rocks! is another easy crown to make.  Since it has 5 balls on the top of the points, have students make twenty groups of 5 dots inside the crown, and then skip count to 100 by 5's.  I grouped my dots to look like the 5 on a dice pattern.  Run off on construction paper, trim and glue or staple to a paper headband.

I purposely did not make 100, as I discovered that no matter what "guessing" activity I gave my Y5's, they were always guessing the number 100, simply because it was 100 Day. 

I've included a guess-timation page, where students write down how many circles they think are on the crown and then compare their answer to the correct one.  This is a nice review of the math terms greater than, less than and equal to. 

Buy a pack of 475 Avery mini-colored dot-stickers for less than $2, and have your kiddo's get some fine motor practice in, while they peel and press the dots on the circles of their crown.  Flat-backed rhinestones are also fun, and add that finishing touch.  Click on the link to view/download the 100 Day Crown packet.

Before hand, we discussed how a person ages, and things that were typical of the aging process.  i.e. hair turning gray and white, wrinkles, sagging skin, the need to wear glasses etc. I reminded them of what "granny" had looked like the day before.

This was really me dressed up to the hilt to look like an old woman for story time.  Click on the link to check out the details of this fun activity.

When they were done, they ran their portrait through the "cruncher muncher."

This is a roller tool that crinkles paper to look like corrugated cardboard.  The result was a nice "wrinkled" appearance which you can see in the sample photo.  100 day activities, 100 day coloring pages, ideas for 100 day, 100 day crafts, 100 day bulletin boards, 100 day banners, greater than and less than activities, guesstimation activities, 100 day games, 100 day centers, aging a photo apps, when I'm 100 what will I look like, 100 day crowns, counting to 100, skip counting by 10's skip counting by 5s, activities for skip counting to 100, The completed pictures made an adorable 100 Day bulletin board

This year I thought it would be fun to make the self-portraits smaller and have students draw themselves inside an oval.  When they are done, they choose a colored pennant and glue their photo in place.

I've included templates for the first and last pennants, as well as one for the boys, plus one for the girls.   Make sure to make one of yourself. Click on the link to view/download the Oldies One Hundred Day Banner.

Since there were more positive reviews about Oldify, I downloaded that.  It has the added bonus of being able to record your voice.  The eyes blink, the mouth moves and your photo appears a bit "real".

There are quite a few free "age me" apps, but "you get what you pay for" seems to ring pretty true here.  Instead of, or in addition to, having students draw themselves at the ripe old age of 100, you can take a head shot of each of your students, age them with the app and then print them off.

These would look awesome on the Oldies Banner.

A simpler banner, involves reinforcement holes. Since they are pretty inexpensive, (you can buy a pack of 924 for less than $2) I liked to use them quite a bit with my Y5's.  Peeling and pressing them on something, was great fine motor skill practice.
