Understand Usually
Hint for students
Usually means most of the time. It shows a habit or pattern, but it still allows exceptions.
Common mix-up
Usually is not the same as always. Usually means something happens often, but not every single time.
Try it in class or at home
Write one sentence that shows usually without using the word usually. Then underline the clue words that show a habit, pattern, or something that happens most of the time. Example: On most school days, our class starts math before recess. Clue words: most school days, starts math, before recess Now try your own sentence. Ask: Does my sentence show something that happens most of the time but not always?
Teacher prompt
Ask students to explain this model sentence: "We usually read after lunch." Why does usually fit better than always?
