100
Days of School
During the 2nd week of this term, the year 2 classes
celebrated 100 days of school through both Literacy and Numeracy activities.
We started off the celebrations with reading the story book”
100 Hungry Ants” by Elinor Pinczes. It is about 100 ants which march towards a
picnic and argue about the quickest way to get there, forming arrays to make
100 – 1 line of 100, 2 lines of 50, 4 lines of 25, 5 lines of 20 and 10 lines
of 10.
We then
worked in groups to reproduce the arrays of 100 hungry ants.
The next day we
participated in rotational activities amongst all 4 year 2 classes. Mrs Edgar
had us first estimating how far 100 steps would take us and then we carefully
measured to get an accurate result.
