Dressing up in funny costumes isn't the only activity to partake in on the 100th day of school. There are tons of other fun activities to do on the said day.
Teachers usually plan fun interactive sessions for the kids to improve their communication and leadership skills.
Likewise, students participate in group activities like playing games or hosting interactive sessions on the day.
Some of the interesting activities to do on the 100th day of school are:
1) Counting From 0 To 100
Counting numbers from 0 to 100 is an activity primarily designated for kindergarten students.
It is a knowledge-driven task that tests the memory power of kids and boosts their confidence.
Teachers can make the session interesting by rewarding the students with treats who successfully complete the task. However, punishing a student for failing to do so is not usually a good idea as it can affect their self-confidence.
2) Collecting 100 Pieces Of An Item
Teachers use this activity to teach their students the power of visualization.
As per this game, kids are asked to collect 100 pieces of the same item. The items are generally small like fruit loops, pennies, candy, or something else.
Then, the students should put the 100 pieces together and compare the stacks of different items.
The activity can be made more interesting by making different shapes from the pieces like the number 100 or anything else.
3) Scavenger Hunt For Kids
Teachers host scavenger hunts for kids to learn teamwork and improve their observation skills.
Normally, a teacher hides 100 pieces of an item, like the pieces of a puzzle. Every piece found contains a hint to the next piece, and so on. The kids must then work in groups to find all the pieces and complete the puzzle.
The teacher can either divide the students into a single group or smaller groups for more competition. If the kids are divided into multiple groups, the group that finds the most pieces becomes the winner.
4) Fun Mathematics Game
The 100th Day of School celebrated is often associated with maths as 100 is a number and mathematics is all about numbers.
Teachers can hold interactive sessions with kids by involving them in games like quizzes, guess my number, multiplication and division bingo, and math revolution.
Maths quizzes involve the use of operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and subtraction. The kids are divided into two or more groups and are asked questions relating to the operations, for example, "How much is 27+45?"
Students are given turns or must raise their hands if they know the answer. The teacher gives certain points for each correct answer, The student or group with the most points at the end of the game is deemed the winner.
