100 Days of School: Feburary 5, 2008
We celebrated our 100 days in school by completing a "100 Days Project". The students collected 100 items from home and placed them on a poster board. They brought them to class and we shared them with each other, counted to 100 and then displyed them outside of our classrooms! It was amazing to see how each student took ownership of their product and shared it with their peers and teacher!
