Celebrating the 100th day of school--and the days leading up to it--has become a lively source of activities in early childhood classrooms. Picture books like Margery Cuyler and Arthur Howard's 100th Day Worries and Rosemary Wells's Emily's First 100 Days of School are wonderful tributes to this occasion, as is Day-by-Day 100th Day Activities. In this engaging workbook, activities are organized in sets of 10, with nine days of short activities and a celebration for each 10th day of school. Each section spans a set of days (for example, days 11 to 19) and requires a list of supplies (chess game, ice cube tray, etc.), describes the mathematic learning goals of this time period, and provides one easy lesson per day. On day 11, for example, students are charged with drawing 11 Os to show a football team's formation. And, as the introduction states, "as you remark about the number of legs on a spider or hours in the day, you are introducing concepts and ideas that will be studied later in more detail." This handy workbook, designed for classroom use, offers a wealth of learning concepts from counting to writing numerals to using a number line. You'll also find helpful management tips, ways to celebrate the 100th day, and reproducible activity pages. (Kindergarten to grade 2)
