100th Day of School for Upper Elementary

I wanted to share one of favorite new resources for my students with you today. Every year we get to see the primary kids having 100th Day Fun, and I wanted to bring some 100th Day Fun for into my upper elementary classroom. As the years go on, the magic  and fun of school slowly goes away for some students. With some help of some great 100th Day of School graphics from Ashley Hughes, my fifth graders can have some “fun’ with this resource full of  activities and printables for celebrating the 100th day of school for upper elementary students.

100th Day of School

This is a fun set of task cards that requires the students to simplify fractions with denominators of 100! This is a fun way to practice this skill that needs lots of practice to perfect. Simplifying fractions is probably my students’ least favorite skill (besides division) because they do all of the fraction operation work and hen have one more step. They don’t complain about this simplifying fractions activity one bit!

 Another math center has the students writing algebraic expressions that all have the number 100 in them.

I also threw in some reflection printables that have the students reflecting on their behavior and the skills they have learned so far in the first 100 days of school.

    I do the simplifying fractions with 100 in the denominator because it's great practice for my fourth graders! I'll never forget the worst 100s day we ever had though. In our zest to improve the kids' stamina for their Long Composition MCAS test, someone in our school had the idea of making them write for 100 minutes. It was absolute torture for them! The poor kids. Their siblings all got to run around downstairs collecting 100 little treats from different classrooms, and fourth graders were suffering with a practice test. Never. Again. 100s day math centers are definitely the way forward!
