Happy 100th Day of School!

Our 100th Day of School was on Monday and we had an amazing day.  This year, besides doing many of the activities in my 100th Day Unit, we all dressed up as 100 year olds.  It was so freakin’ cute!!!  I got the idea from the incredible Deanna Jump.  I even got into the spirit and channeled my inner Long Island old lady and wore as much leopard print as possible.  I hope you enjoy the pictures!  Thank you for making my 100th Day Unit a top seller on TpT.

    I love your 100th day outfit! I teach at a pre k-12th grade school, so the whole elementary participated in the fun of dressing up as an 100 year old. We did get some strange looks from the older kids. 🙂

    Sooo CUTE!! I would've loved it if we could've dressed up but our kids wear uniforms. 🙁 My sister's class dressed up as 100 year olds, and she & her teaching partner dressed up (and acted) like 2nd graders. Too funny!!

    Ha! I love, love, love your 100 year old lady! I think we would get along splendidly in the classroom! Plus, I am from Long Island originally but work in NYC now teaching first grade at a dual language (ASL and English School). Anyway, thanks for the 100 days of school ideas. I hope I remember them next year! Best, Gary

    YAY! I dress up as a 100 year old lady as well for 100, and have almost tricked the students into believing that I am Mrs. Dunn's 100 year old grandmother!

Students naturally seem to want to say “that’s ok. Students naturally seem to want to say “that’s ok.” to an apology but it is never ok to hurt a fellow student’s feelings, body, or to make them uncomfortable. 

“I accept your apology.” Is a good way for students to move past it if they are willing to do so. 

What do you have your students say?
