100th Day of School

Kindergarten is such a fun year. And it helps that Enoch has the most amazing teacher ever, Mrs. Simpson. We love her!
Since kindergarteners learn how to count to 100, they make a big deal about the 100th day of school. Each child is sent home with a large piece of cardstock and told to put 100 things on there. Some kids do 100 stickers, draw a bowl with 100 cereal pieces in it or make a 100 eyed monster. Enoch, of course, wanted to do a volcano. We got pull-apart red licorice and put 100 pieces of 'lava' spewing from the volcano.

The licorice was getting a bit heavy, so we stared cutting the pieces in half. We also had to put some pieces in the lava tubes because we were running out of room at the top. Enoch colored the volcano and glued on all the licorice by himself. He did such a great job on his volcano (and he can count to 100!).

Good teachers, like Mrs. Simpson, are priceless, and so are good students, like Enoch!
