Happy 100th Day!!!

Last week we celebrated the 100th day of school. This is a big day in first grade. We play big time! Not only was Zero the Hero there, but she also brought her sidekick Marty the Mathematician, AND Henry the Hundredth Boy. It was pretty intense.

Zero the Hero was so excited about the hundredth day that she brought a treat/game for the students. She brought four bags, each with chocolate animal crackers in them. One bag had exactly 100 cookies. The others had more or less. Each student got a chance to choose which bag had 100.



All of the students guessed. We then counted each bag, and compared them with the guesses and found that . . . .



not a SINGLE student guessed right. What are the chances that with 23 guesses not one single guess would be right. Every other bag had guesses. I was shocked! It was okay though, we still ate them :-)

Can you believe that 100 days have already passed? I am shocked! How time flies! Happy 100th day!

Those odds really aren't very good are they? What a fun day though. I almost wish I was going to school just to celebrate the 100th day of school like that!
