velvetpageMy kiddo is smart. She just gave me a perfect explanation of how there were ten sets of ten in 100. We segued into her three times table, showing 3 on each die and counting the number of dice. Then by grouping the dice, we figured out that 12x2 is the same as 8x3. For the record, she's in grade one - basic multiplication is a grade three topic.
Then we put all the dice in my dice box into baggies in sets of 10, for her hundreds day project. She's supposed to take in a collection of 100 items. Later this week we'll write a short speech for her in French to explain her collection. It will include things like, "These twenty dice all have ten sides, while these fifty dice all have six sides. This bag of ten dice has six eight-sided dice, three four-sided dice, and one thirty-four sided die."

doc_mystery's and his daughter's one hundred zombies for its sheer awesome, I think 100 dice is a pretty decent hundreds-day project.
