Ellie's 100 Day Celebration

Yesterday I got the pleasure of spending a little bit of time in El's room while they celebrated being in school 100 days. We are actually a little bit behind in celebrating, but it was fun for the kids! They all brought in 100 of something and shared them with their friends. Afterwards the teachers had set up a treasure hunt of 100 little pieces of candy that the children had to find. I was excited to watch the "active board" (Steph E - do you know what I'm talking about??) in action! One of the teachers put up an electronic 100's chart and then the kids could mark off the numbers as they found candy with a special pen. The image from the computer is projected on a special board which allows the children to interact with it. I used to get excited to use the overhead projector in the classroom - I'm thinking this is a sign that I've been away from teaching way too long!




Coop wanted in on the action too!!
