In math we have been working hard on 3 math skills:  finishing up our addition strategies using open number lines and splitting numbers and we've also started working on counting objects in an organized way and understanding place value (hundreds, tens, and ones).

2 activities we've been working on in reading workshop is focusing on finding non-fiction text features using a Non-Fiction Features Scavenger Hunt and writing out own book to show what we've learned about non-fiction features and their purpose.
