  • We were also introduced to the thinking routine, "Sometimes, Always, Never" around questions of addition. 
  • Ask your child if they think this number: 
  • Is the same as this number:

  • Sometimes, always or never and then have them explain their reasons why. 
  • On our community walk on Wednesday, we went on a scavenger hunt looking for community landmarks and signs of winter. We worked on an event map in our Visual Journals. Ask your child to share what landmarks they observed on our community walk.
