100 Days of Kindergarten

 

Last week, Kindergarten celebrated the milestone, 100 Days of Kindergarten! To commemorate this special occasion, students dressed up as 100-year-olds and participated in a variety of activities relating to the triple-digit number. Students created self-portraits, made necklaces using 100 beads and enjoyed 100s and 1000s fairy bread. Congratulations, Kindergarten! You certainly are 100 days smarter!
