Uncle Wolf Leaves Us 100 Cookies!

On the 100th Day of School we read the book Wolf's Chicken Stew by Keiko Kasza.
The book is about a wolf who has a plan to fatten up a chicken for his dinner.  He leaves food on her doorstep to fatten her up--100 pancakes, a cake weighing 100 pounds, 100 doughnuts--but eventually he is found out and joins the chicken and her 100 hungry little chicks for dinner.  On the last page the wolf contemplates leaving 100 scrumptious cookies on their doorstep.

That afternoon we heard a knock on our door and look what we found!


We even got a note from Uncle Wolf!


We ended up having  a great afternoon trying to figure out how many cookies there really were and how many cookies each of us would get if there was really 100 cookies.  We figured out that there were ten plates of ten cookies, which really was 100!


We also figured out that each of us would get 5 cookies, if we split it evenly (and of course Mrs. Henning gets cookies, too!).

Those cookies were SCRUMPTIOUS!!!


Luckily we found out that Uncle Wolf didn't leave us the cookies...Danica's mom made them! Thank you!
