100th Day of School

Yesterday was Ellie's 100th day of school.  Time flies!!  She's more than halfway through first grade!  To celebrate, throughout the day they did all sorts of activities based on 100.  In P.E., they jumped rope 100 times.  In class, they held their breath for 100 seconds.  They did lots of math based on 100.  But the best part was at snack time.  Each student brought 100 pieces of some sort of snack.  Ellie brought her signature candy, Skittles.  They received 10 of 10 kinds of snacks (mostly candy!) on a special placemat, counted them and then ate up!  Ellie was definitely sugared up when she got home from school but what a fun way to celebrate 100 days!
