On January 27, the First Grade celebrated the 100th day of school!  The kids wrote 100 words they knew, wrote their numbers to 100, and even licked a lolly-pop 100 times.  Students brought a bag of 100 small items that they counted and displayed on their desks.  The first graders then were able to go on a 'museum walk' around all the first grade classrooms.  We have had 100 wonderful days of first grade and can't wait for more!
