Change and Continuity

Think to yourself for 30 seconds about your own routine at home. When do you get up? How do you get to school? What do you eat? What do you do after school?

Now share in your groups, explain to each other what your routine is. Listen to others when they are speaking and do not interrupt each other. You have one minute each to explain.
