100 Straws

Tonight I helped Brett with his homework for this week. He was to make a poster with 100 things grouped in sets of 10 for the 100 days of school celebration. I saw these straws in the drawer the other day & when I saw the blue posterboard, it just came into my mind that we could put them together for a colorful project. Amazingly, Brett didn't fight me on the idea, only on the fact that we were supposed to group them into 10's. Sure enough, after I reread the sheet, I saw he was right! We decided to bend the ends of the straws up so it was easier to see that there's actually 10 there. Easy & fun!
