Gan Aleph celebrates the 100th Day of School!

Ladies and Gentlemen ...It's the moment you have all been waiting for... THE 100th DAY of SCHOOL!!!!
This week, we celebrated the 100th day of school with movement, food, math and a whole lot of fun!
We began the day by filling bags with one hundred snacks! There were 10 plates on the table with a different snack on each. The children counted by tens as they filled their bags with 10 of each snack in order to make 100 snacks!
Next, we put on our hats and necklaces and joined the other kindergartens for a 100 day celebration! We played 100 number bingo, did 100 exercises and worked with our friends from the other classes to create something out of 100 of a certain item (paperclips, cups, pipecleaners etc.).
We ended the celebration by filling a poster with the number 100 on it with pennies we had brought from home. This money will be given to tzedakah!
When we returned to the classroom we played a game in which a group of children sat with a 100 number board. They took turns rolling the dice and added the two numbers together. They crossed out the number combined by the dice on their board and kept doing so until someone reached the number 100! Other children worked on a different type of chart in which they were provided with a board with the numbers 1 through 100 on it. They were also given stickers with different numbers on it. They worked together to match the stickers to the correct number until the whole board was filled!
We ended the day with a cake and are looking forward to the next 100 days of school!
