Students draw and decorate a clock face. They work in pairs, students take turns drawing clock hands to show a specific time on the clock face. Students check each other's clock-reading abilities.

Students examine and discuss the differences between clocks they are shown. Using the internet, they research how people used to tell time before clocks. They review what the long and short hand on the clock represent and practice...

Basic time-telling practice is the focus here.Youngsters discuss the different clocks they have in their homes, and practice filling in the time by adding the minute and hour hands to blank clock faces.

In this clock construction instructional activity, students use a pencil, compass, and sun clock diagram to construct a homemade sun clock. A very interesting instructional activity on combining images with text.

Second graders identify the hour and minute hands. They tell time by the hour, nearest quarter hour, half hour, and determine the relationships of time (e.g. minutes in hour, days in a month, weeks in a year). They create over-sized...

Take your time with this instructional activity. Junior engineers read about different types of clocks and then work together to build a pendulum time-keeper. There are no hints as to how they might go about accomplishing this complex...
