100th Day of School

     We have finally had 100 days of school!  With all of our snow days, I wasn't sure we were ever going to make it.  This afternoon we celebrated with 5 different stations of activities involving 100.  We had a blast!  Look at our pictures to see how much fun we had.
     Before we got started we made 100 Days Smarter hats while Mrs. Games read The 100th Day of School From the Black Lagoon.  That Hubie is quite a character.





 
 
100 Drops of Water
With help from Grandma Lois
 





 
 
100 Grid Picture
We drew cards and colored the squares to create a 100th Day message.
 





 
100 Pennies
Mrs. Archer helped us weigh and measure the length of 100 pennies.









 
 
100 Picture
We used the digits 100 to create a picture.







 
Cup Sculptures
This was probably the overall favorite!  We built with 100 cups.  Sometimes we were more successful than others!  LOL
 











 

 
What a fantastic day!

Pajama Read-A-Rama

     We won the Box Top award for November so we decided to have a Pajama Read-A-Rama.  We got comfortable and read all day.  After we read a book we were able take AR tests.  We gained a lot of points!





     Grandma Lois read with us.  Here she is reading with Josh.


     Here we are taking our AR tests.  We read so many books so we had a line.

The Christmas Party


          Our parents planned a cute sock snowman craft for us to work on first.
 







     Now it is time to pass the presents right and left in a circle to decide which one we will get.









 
      It's game time!  We are playing Jingle Jump.  Bells are placed in empty tissue boxes and belted on us.  Then we have to jump and the first person to jump all the bells out is the winner.  What a hoot!









     Our dads were so much help with the game that we decided they should jump!  They were such great sports! 



Christmas Writing --The Twelve Days of Christmas

     We read different versions of The Twelve Days of Christmas.  Then we read a book called The Twelve Dogs of Christmas written by an eight year old girl named Emma Kragen.  She inspired us to write our own versions of the books.  Here we are hard at work!
