We continued 100's day activites with making necklaces out of 100 pieces of Ditalini. Every 5th Ditalini was blue, and every 10th Ditalini was red. While making the necklace we counted by 5's and used our math skills to decide how many more 10's we had to go until we got to 100. Then we sorted our collections of 100 things into groups of 10's, 5's, 20's, 25's, 50's and 100. We realized we were actually learning about multiplication. Lots of fun 'hands on' math. Lots of learning.
