same & different

We have a friend who teaches 2nd Grade at Mary Reese's school.  She happened to visit Mary Reese's classroom while they were doing an activity.  Mrs. Lowery was talking about sorting.  Her class was trying to decide what things were same & different about these 3 children...


Her friend Deuce said Mary Reese was different because she had on a dress.  Then he said Devin was different from Mary Reese & Destiny because Devin was a boy...


Then they worked on a same/different worksheet...



...circling the same things & crossing out the different item.

And then she got busy coloring another sheet...



I love getting surprise pictures during the day [Thanks Kate]!  Even better...I love hearing Mary Reese telling me about what they were doing in the pictures.
