Reading Adventure Pack: Time

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

An activity packet explores the concept of time. First, scholars read two stories—The Very Grouchy Ladybug by Eric Carle and Telling Time: How to Tell Time on Digital and Analog Clocks! by Jules Older, illustrated by Megan Halsey. Learners then take part in several activities. They make a clock out of paper, spot clocks everywhere they go, play a game of Beat the Clock, create a time capsule, and use their imagination to travel through time.
