100th Day of School

February 7th was the 100th day of school. The kindergarten class celebrated this day with many activities involving counting to 100.

A snack bag of 100 pieces were counted in 10 sets of 10:

Balls were bounced 100 times:

100 'hugs' and 'kisses' were hidden all around the room and placed on their numbered squares when found:

100 items were drawn and colored:


And 100 blocks were used to create wooden structures:

All in all, it was a big day for 100!

During the month of February JCOS held the Book It event in which our community read more than 200,000 pages.  Here are some pictures of our BOOK IT celebration last Friday in conjuction with Dr, Seuss's birthday.
