100th Day of School

Having a 7 year old sister-in-law definitely has its FUN moments! These moments are especially fun when she attends school where I work! The first graders celebrate the 100th day of school with costumes, songs, and a parade around the school. Well, Emma isn't a first grader, but we had been planning a special project together for the 100th day of school.

One evening while I was watching Emma we decided to make a special shirt for the 100th day of school. We came up with a tally mark design and Emma chose all the colors and the order they went on the shirt. I finished the shirt and took it to school for Emma to wear. Her teacher had her stand in front of her class and discussed the 100 tally marks! Oh course Emma loved the attention. The first grade teachers loved the design and asked for the template for next school year. Here is the before and after...
