The kids were getting ready to leave for the day. When they were all lined up at the door Mrs. Mentzel announced

"Tomorrow is the 100th day of school so I want you all to go home and make a shirt with a hundred things on it that you like."

Everyone was excited about this new project. After school they all went to the store with their parents to pick out T shirts, paint, and stickers.

Chuckie picked out a light green shirt with rocket ship stickers. Tommy picked a light blue shirt with stickers of tools. Kimi picked a pink shirt and with help from Kira she was going to paint a hundred flowers on it. Lil got a purple shirt and cup cake stickers. Phil chose a brown shirt and bug stickers. Zack chose a dark blue shirt with train stickers. Kai chose a light blue shirt with shark stickers. Kya chose a turquoise shirt and shell stickers.

When the kids got home they started applying the stckers and painting.

The next day they all showed off their shirts in a fashion show.

Tommy was first to show off his shirt.

"I got 100 stickers of tools on my shirt cuz I like to help my daddy build his inventions." Tommy explained.

"My shirt has trains on it cuz there my favorite thing." Zack said.

"Mine has bugs on it cuz there my favorite thing to eat." Phil said taking a worm from his pocket and slurping it down. Everyone in the room looked discusted.

"Cup cakes are better to eat Philip." Lil said shoving Phil out of her way and showing her sparkly cup cake stickers.

"I got sharks on my shirt cuz their my favorite animal." Kai explained proudly.

"I put sea shell stickers on my shirt cuz I really like the new movie Moana." Kya said.

"Me and my mommy painted these flowers on my shirt last night but my mommy did most of it cuz she paints better then me." Kimi said showing the class a flower that she painted and one that her mom did.

"Uh I like space." Chuckie said quietly,not really comfortable in front of the class.

After the fashion show they made hats that said 100 days smarter.

"We have to color again." Kimi groaned."My hand still hurts from painting flowers last night."

"Mom painted most of the flowers." Chuckie said.

"I still helped. Hers looked better then mine." Kimi said reaching for a pink marker.

As the kids finished decorating their hats Mrs, Mentzel came around and helped them put the hats on. They looked like square pieces of paper with colorful 100s on top.

"I want each of you to come up to the board and write a word until we have 100 words." Mrs. Mentzel explained and one by one each child came up to the board and wrote a word. After all the words were written they read aloud all the words on the board.

Next they built a big pyramid with 100 plastic cups. Parts of the structure got knocked over a few times but the kids had fun building it.

After the cup pyramid was knocked down and cleaned up the kids went to recess.

"I can't believe we've been in school for 100 days." Zack said sitting in the sand.

"Yeah me too." Kai added.

"It's been a fun 100 days." Tommy said sliding down the slide.

"Ok before you all go home I have one last thing for you to do." Mrs. Mentzel announced. The kids listened eagerly.

"You need to find all the chocolaye that's marked with a number from 1 to 100. You get to keep what you find." All the kids stood up and ran around the room to find the chocolate.

"I found number 25." Kya said excitedly as she looked through the blockes.

"I found 59." Zack called as he moved the books around.

By the time all the chocolate was found it was almost time to go. Everybody put their candy in their backpacks and lined up at the door.

When their parents came to get them they told them all about their fun day.
