In my classroom the 100th day of school is a special math activity day my students really look forward to.
We play all kinds of games but I also like to provide a little book to connect to literacy. The children work through this book during a small group rotation and a parent goes through each page teaching them how to draw each object presented. When this is completed (takes several days) students put this in their literacy bag to take home and practice with parents. In chapter 6 of MWS Debbie Diller addresses place value and how it might look in a kindergarten classroom . We use "Zero the Hero" as our math mascot and practice counting by 10's to 100 throughout the year. It is important that kids recognize mathematical patterns and we use the 100 's pocket chart as part of our daily opening.
Here are the pages of the little book I use as part of our 100th day celebration.
If you would like a copy of this book you can grab it here.
Please leave a comment and follow me so I can make more friends.
I will add more activities tomorrow.

Sorry about that- they keep writing the number 10 and finally they count by 10's until they reach 100!

Love your book. Thanks for sharing. I have used Zero the Hero in the past and the children love him. I'm new to this blogging world and trying to "keep up!".
I love Zero the Hero and I love this 100 book! Thank you so much for sharing! :)
Love this activity Fran!! You are UBER creative. I've been teaching Kindergarten for 18 years and always love to change things up. I'm having difficulty saving it in Google docs. I'll try back later and see if it is working.
