Which One Doesn't Belong? - In this routine students are asked to look at all four images and asked to share their reasoning as to "Which One Doesn't Belong and Why?"

The focus is not on the answer, but on the student being able to communicate his/her reasoning/justification of their choice.
Same or Different? - Same or Different? is a routine that provides students opportunities to construct arguments when comparing objects, such as numbers or shapes.
