As I was reviewing K's work, I noticed this page. I queried K why did she wrote 3 and 1? Her explanation and logical thinking is splendid.
M: Why did you write 3 and 1?
K: There are only 3 ducks facing the left and only 1 puppy that is exactly the same as the question.There is no total in the question.
I was dumbfounded and found her thinking logical and quite true.
"Very sharp observation skills, K!". She ended up laughing and told me that a few of her classmate got the same answer as her.
Way to go children. Let that creativity of yours flow.
