First grade students in Ms. Brown’s class at Susan E. Wiley Elementary School celebrated the 100th day of school on Feb. 25 with a day of hands-on, 100-themed learning activities.

To mark the occasion, students rotated through interactive stations centered around the number 100. Working collaboratively, they challenged themselves to stack 100 plastic cups and created colorful posters using 100 stickers. Creativity was on full display as students designed one-of-a-kind structures using 100 Lego pieces and engineered tower creations with toothpicks and gumdrops.

In addition to the building challenges, first graders also reflected on the milestone by writing about what their lives might be like when they are 100 years old, encouraging imagination and thoughtful writing.

The celebration provided a meaningful opportunity for students to reinforce math, teamwork and problem-solving skills while marking an important milestone in the school year. With 100 days of learning behind them, first graders continue to grow, achieve and look ahead to the rest of a successful school year.
