DAY 10 - ZERO THE HERO's FIRST VISIT

On Tuesday we had ZERO THE HERO visit our classroom.

WHY?

Because it was DAY 10 of the school year!

ZERO THE HERO visited because we are counting up to the 100th day of school. He's going to help us count in tens, visiting us every '10' days until we reach the '100th' day, when we'll have a big celebration.

ZERO is going to help us understand place value and the important role 'zero' has in a number.

This was ZERO THE HERO's first visit, so he told us a little about himself, not by speaking but through strange looking designs called 'qr codes'. We needed MRs M's iphone to scan and read the codes. One of the codes had a link to ZERO THE HERO's favourite video -' ZERO, MY HERO'.

When ZERO visits, we have special activities that help us count in tens.

Watch the ANIMOTO we made to show what we did to celebrate DAY 10.

We can't wait for ZERO THE HERO to visit again.

DAY 10 - A 'ZERO THE HERO' DAY!

Today we had a special visitor
come to our
classroom - ZERO THE HERO!

WHY?





Because it was DAY...

We are counting up to the 100th day of school, so ZERO THE HERO came to help us understand place value and the important role 'zero' has in a number. He's going to help us count in tens, visiting us every '10' days until we reach the '100th' day and then we'll have a big celebration.

This was ZERO'S first visit so we watched his favourite video to learn a little more about why the number ZERO is a HERO.

Here it is for you to watch too.

When ZERO visits, we have special activities to do to help us count in tens.

Watch the slideshow to see what we did today.

We are really excited about ZERO visiting us again in another 10 days. Now there are only 90 days until DAY 100.

If you've counted up to DAY 100, we'd like to know what activities you did along the way. Did ZERO THE HERO visit you too?
