Today was the 100th day of school! We started the day off with a school assembly. We sang a 100th day song, heard a story read by guest reader Mrs. Kathy Hefner, watched a Minute-to-Win-It game, and were quiet for 100 seconds. Back in the classroom we wore 100th day glasses, wrote with a 100th day pencil, and worked in a 100th day activity book. Later in the afternoon we crawled through a 100th day door into the cafeteria and enjoyed 100 slurps (more or less) of a root beer float. It was a great day!
