Counting the days of the year is a great routine!  Be sure to keep counting after the 100th day!  A lot of people tend to stop, but school continues!  Actually, I would have a wall routine, where students either write the day of the school year on a chart or a post it and ALSO I would have them keep track on a grid in their calendar folders (because everybody should have their own calendar folders).
