Grades K-2: Take a picture walk through and make a prediction about the story. Grades 3 and up: Read the first five pages of the story.

4 Qualities of an Employee Harry is an employee at the 4 Color Balloon Factory. An employee is someone who works for a person or a business. Mr. Huffy is Harry s boss. He watches over Harry to make sure everything is going well, and tells Harry what he should be doing at work. Pretend that you are Mr. Huffy. What type of qualities would you want in an employee? Brainstorm qualities and record your ideas.

5 Bunches of 100 Solve the problems below by determining if they equal 100. If the statement is false, write which number it is equal to. If it does equal 100, write true. Use the blank space to draw an array or to solve the problem. 1. True 5 stations with 20 slots. 5x20= stations with 8 slots. 9x8= 3. 4 stations with 25 slots stations with 11 slots stations with 24 slots stations with 10 slots, 4 stations of 5 slots 7. 2 stations of 50 slots stations of 1 slot stations of 5 slots, 7 stations of 6 slots stations of 5 slots, 9 stations of 2 slots. Create two questions like the one above. Have a friend or classmate solve them

6 Primary Colors At the 4 Color Balloon Factory in the book they make four colors of balloons. Three of them are primary colors, and one is a secondary color. Use paint and a cotton tipped swab to paint the circles and explore the creation of secondary colors.

7 Blowing Up Balloons Did you know there is a way to blow up a balloon without using your mouth? With an adult, try this experiment to see if you can blow up the balloon! Materials Needed: Balloons Narrow Funnel 1 teaspoon sugar 1 tablespoon active dry yeast Measuring spoons Measuring cup Ruler Warm Water Procedure: 1. Stretch the opening of the balloon and put the funnel into the balloon. 2. With the help of an adult, measure the sugar and pour it into the balloon. 3. Measure the yeast and put it into the balloon. 4. Fill the measuring cup with warm water from the sink and pour it into the funnel. 5. Remove the funnel from the balloon. 6. Tie a knot in the balloon with the sugar, water, and yeast mixture. 7. Measure the balloon. 8. Put the balloon in a warm place. 9. Measure the balloon every two minutes. 10. Record your measurements. Data: Start 2 minutes 4 minutes 6 minutes 8 minutes 10 minutes 12 minutes Observations: (What did you notice?) Explanation: The yeast uses the sugar and water to grow. As it begins to bubble, it is giving off Carbon Dioxide. This is the same gas your body gives off as it breathes.

8 Rhyming Words Throughout the book, there are many rhyming words like knot and slot. Use the word maps below to come up with words that rhyme with the word in the middle of the center circle. Hat Floor Fast Pop

9 Fiction vs. Nonfiction is a fiction story. Fiction is when it is made up by the author. Nonfiction stories are written with facts, things that are true. After reading the story, thumb through the book and make a list of all the parts that make this story fiction. Then, make a list of at least five other books that you have read that are also fiction books. Fiction is Fake. Nonfiction is Not Fake. Find things that make this story fiction: Other fiction books that you have read:

10 Odd and Even In the story, Harry starts with 100 balloons, which is an even number. Marcy tells him to count by 5 s. Five is an odd number. With a partner, roll two dice. Use those two numbers to make the lowest possible two digit number. For example, if you roll a one and a three, the lowest possible number is 13, not 31. Fill out the chart below as you and a partner determine odd and even numbers. Number on Dice 1 Number on Dice 2 Lowest 2 digit number Odd or Even? Odd

11 What is an Array, Anyway? An array is an arrangement of a set of numbers or objects in rows and columns. Mr. Huffy uses an array to explain to Harry how he could have counted the balloons. Below is a picture of a 10x10 array. Use it to help you solve the problems below. 1. If Harry popped 2 stations of 10 slots, how many balloons would be left? 2. He then pops 4 slots in 5 stations. How many balloons did he pop? 3. How many are left? 4. He then pops 20 balloons. What are three examples of arrays that would show 20 balloons? Example: 10x2 5. How many balloons are left now? 6. Where else have you seen an array in everyday life? 7. In what other type of situation might you want to use an array to solve a problem? 8. Draw a 5 x 5 array below. 9. Color in a 2x2 block red. Color in a 3x3 block blue. 10. How many are left uncolored?

12 How Many is 100? 100 can be a very large number, or a very small number. When you compare 100 to the number of people who live in your state, 100 is a very low number. When you compare 100 to the number of televisions you have in your home, 100 is a very large number. Use the phrase more than or less than to complete numbers 1-15 below. Then complete using the same pattern. 1. There are 100 sinks in my school. 2. There are 100 people that live in my house. 3. There are 100 pencils in my school. 4. There are 100 students in my class. 5. There are 100 pages in my favorite book. 6. There are 100 minutes in three hours. 7. There are 100 pennies in $ There are 100 keys on a keyboard. 9.

13 100 th Day of School There are many ways to celebrate the 100 th day of school! In the story, Mrs. Doopido celebrated her birthday with 100 balloons. Complete the variety of activities below as a celebration! 1. Do 20 jumping jacks, 10 sit ups, 10 push ups, jump up and down 20 times, and run in place for 40 seconds.

14 Opposites Celebrate the number 100 by finding 50 pairs of opposite things. When you are finished you will have 100 words! Use the book to look for some examples of opposites. For example, on the cover page, Harry s eyes are closed. On the first page, his eyes are open. Those are opposites. 1. open closed

How do you think Harry felt after blowing up all 100 balloons? 3. How do you think George felt after he made Harry lose count of the balloons? 4.
