We’re 100 days smarter! Our elementary students and their teachers celebrated the 100th day of school on Tuesday, February 12, dressing up to look like a 100-year-old person and participating in lots of creative math, writing, and physical activities involving the number 100. Students in Mrs. Fosbenner’s 3rd grade class had fun seeing how high they could count in 100 seconds and how many times they could write their name in 100 seconds. Miss Vogel’s 1st graders did a math speed drill to solve 100 subtraction problems. They also were asked to answer the question — “If I had $100, I would…” One student wrote: “I would buy a mansion and a limo.”  Another wrote: “I would give it to the poor because I like to help people.” Miss Williams’ 2nd graders created posters or decorated shirts that had 100 objects in them. In Mrs. Capito’s 1st grade class, students took 100 steps outside their classroom to see how far they would go, and almost made it to the school office. In kindergarten, there was lots of activities that incorporated counting to 100 — including counting their tasty snack items like cheerios and raisins.  It was all about making learning fun.
