Can you believe it’s already the 100th day of school for the 2010/2011 school year? Caden has officially been in Kindergarden for 100 days. Of course, there was a pretty neat homework project to go along with this milestone. The kids had to come up with 100 items of any sort and find a neat way to display then. I thought we would make a “fish tank” and have a 100 days of “fish” school. So we went to the pet store and got the coral picture backing for a real fish tank and bought some colored Goldfish crackers. We gluded groups of 10’s to the picture and had ourselves a little fishtank! It looked adorable and we got lots of lessons out of it as well. The color of the fish, counting to 10, grouping in 10’s and counting by 10’s to 100 to name only a couple of them. Caden LOVED doing this. So as we went to bed Sunday night, we left the project on the counter to dry. Wouldn’t you know it when we woke up in the morning, Mason (the baby kitty -5 months) ATE a decent amount of them! There were crumbs all over the place and missing fishys everywhere! Bummer!! We ended up having to bring the project into school a day early and sent Caden with glue and fish to fix it, so the cat wouldn’t eat it again. In hindsight it really is quite funny! Mason, we are pretty sure thinks he is part dog. That’s for another story! But really… how many kids can say, and Mean,
“The Cat ate my homework?”
