"Hickory Dickory Dock"

"Hickory Dickory Dock. The mouse went up the clock..."  

The goal of this all is to get the kids to communicate their thinking. Otherwise, how else could we learn what this was? We learn from each other. It's how connections form. It's how we become empathetic. 

There was no right or wrong answer to this. In our classroom, we are less concerned with right or wrong and more focussed on teaching the students to communicate their thinking/processes because we want to connect with them. We want to get to know them because they are cool and we want to know where/how to guide them (both academically and social/emotionally).
