Discussion questions

Discussion

Time follows a fixed order: hours on a clock, days in a week, months in a year. Knowing that order is how you plan a day.

  1. What order does this song put things in?
  2. What comes right before and right after today?
  3. Why do we need a shared way to keep track of time?
