Happy 100th day of school!

Today was the 100th day of school! Hooray! We have been keeping track of the days of school with our calendar math. I found a whole list of challenges for the students to do with the number 100. Here is a copy of the sheet the kids worked on today. A favorite activity was taking 100 steps and seeing where they ended up!
This is Sammie's interpretation of what she will look like at 100 years old.
This is Aubrey's interpretation of what she will look like at 100 years old.

Another activity a lot of the kids enjoyed was timing how long it took them to write out a googol, which is a 1 with 100 zeros after it.

Another activity alot of the kids participated in was flipping a coin 100 times and seeing how many times it landed on heads and tails.

The two following pictures were of students who chose to answer some of the writing prompts about 100.
