About this sheet

The hundredth day invites writing as well as counting, because a number that large is a good thing to wonder about. This page gives three prompts to choose from, each with writing lines: what would you do with one hundred of something, how far is one hundred steps, and what might the world be like in one hundred years. At the foot a large box is for a drawing of one hundred of anything, in groups of ten if a child likes. The prompts are editable and the page works for any grade, with younger children drawing and older ones writing a paragraph. It is the quiet partner to the hundred day chart and the day's other activities.

Grades: K to 4. Best in: January, February.

How to use it

  1. Edit the three prompts if you like, and print a class set on letter or A4. Choose which prompt each child will answer.
  2. Give children a few minutes to talk about the prompt with a partner before they write, and let them draw first if they wish.
  3. In the box, ask children to draw one hundred of something, in tens, and count them to check. Share the results.

Five ideas for class

  1. Let each child choose one prompt and share it with the class, so you hear the three different kinds of thinking on the same day.
  2. Make a class book from the drawings: a page of one hundred of something each, with a cover that says One Hundred of Everything.
  3. Do the steps prompt for real: measure how far one hundred steps goes, and compare it with where it takes you on the playground.
  4. Count out one hundred small things, such as beans, with the class, in bags of ten, and use them to fill in the drawing box.
  5. Ask for the wildest answer to the question about a hundred years, and keep the pages to open on the next hundredth day.

Questions

What grades does it suit?

Kindergarten to fourth grade. Younger children draw and tell, and older children write full sentences or a paragraph in each section.

Can I change the prompts?

Yes. The three headings are editable boxes. Change them to prompts for your class's own questions about the number one hundred.

Is it tied to a holiday?

No. It follows the school calendar and works in any year, for any class that counts days.

How do I save it as a PDF?

Choose Print, then pick “Save as PDF” as the printer. Only the sheet prints: the page around it is hidden. You can also save a sheet as a PNG image under the preview.

Can I print it in black and white?

Yes. Switch to Black and white beside the sheet: fills turn white and lines turn black, so it saves ink and photocopies cleanly.
