Hip, Hip HOORAY! We've Been In Kindergarten 100 Days!

All I have to say is "WHEEEWWW!!!" OMG!  I feel like I have been RUN over by a Mac truck!  We have been busy non-stop today!  We did not get it all done!  We did everything but our calendar notebooks!  My day was a TRUE Monday!  It started off with me searching for something for my 15 yr old!  Good grief!  So I was running late!  Then after I arrived at school I realized my camera was DEAD!  Yikes!  Usually I have my battery charger at school anyways but I had taken it home over Christmas break!!!!  So.....my sweet husband ran his work digital camera over for me to use!  It is a DINOSAUR!  LOL!  The AA batteries died in the poor thing 3 times.....3!!!!!!!  So the last few pics I had to do with my iPhone!  I had duty this AM!!!!! And PM!!!!  Really?!?  I'm tired!!  Here are some pics of our fun day!!!

They came in and immediately got down to business!  They laid out 100 fruit loops on their hundreds chart!  When they had it completely covered...I brought them string and they began stringing them on!  As they finished I tied them on as necklaces and they began work on their 100 day hats!

They had to stamp 10 dots on each strip!

Too cute!  They loved them!

This is what they found when they came back from music!

That Zero the Hero!  He is something else! :)

I gave them a ziploc bag to put the numbers in that came out of their balloon!  They were to 

pop their balloon (by sitting on it) grab their number, put it in their bag, and then they

could move on to the next balloon!

Sooooo much fun!

Then....we got to work on putting our numbers in order on the 100's chart!

We TRULY are 100 days smarter!

Happy 100 days of school!  I hope your 100th day celebration

was or will be just as fun!!!!

*** Don't forget about our sale!!!!  The sale will end when I go to bed tonight!  :)  I have

to manually go in and edit all of the prices so I will be doing so about 10:00 p.m.!  Until

then everything is $1.00!!!!

What we've been up to! 100th preparation & FEBRUARY!

Wowzers!  We have been SUPER busy!  Here are some pics to prove it!

We have been busy learning about arctic animals from Deanna Jump's Arctic Animals unit!

They have LOVED this and are enjoying all of the writing we have been doing with it!

We made our snowman heads with patterned scarfs from Julie Lee!

This 5 senses anchor chart was inspired by Pencils, Glue, and Tying Shoes!

These penguins were inspired from Pinterest!  Not sure where I saw these!  

These are our 5 senses kids!  Inspired by Pencils, Glue, and Tying Shoes!  They turned out soooo cute!

In preperation for the 100th day of school we have been making these super-cute kids!  This is inspired by Pinterest, as well!  I LOVE them!!!!!  Their writing turned out so cute, too!

If this idea is yours I would LOVE to give you the credit you deserve!  Let me know!!!

Monday is our 100th day of Kindergarten! I always blow up 100 balloons with the numbers 1-100 inside them!  Zero The Hero brings them while the kids are in P.E.!  They get to pop them by sitting on them and then we put the numbers in order on this chart in the hallway!  They LOVE this!!!!!  I will post pictures tomorrow of all of the cute things we did!!!

Smiling in the snow!

I had to title this post smiling in the snow!  We have made a few cute snow things and have received some GOOD news that made us smile!

We made snowglobes and wrote about what we would do if we lived in a snowglobe.

They turned out super cute!  This is from Deanna Jump.

We painted snowmen and then wrote about what we would do at night.
