Since the beginning of the year the class has been counting the number of days we have been in school. Last week our class celebrated the 100th day of school. We participated in hands-on activities that reinforce numeracy concepts we learn in kindergarten. These include number sense, counting with one to one correspondence, rote counting and number recognition.
Students made a trail mix with 100 food items. They counted 10 items of 10 different foods, reinforcing the concept that 10 groups of 10 equals 100.
The class made hats out of 10 strips of paper with 10 items on each strip.
We made necklaces of 100 items, towers of 100 snap cubes and puzzles with 100 pieces.
