Judy Clocks are a great invention. Here, learners review telling time to hour and half hour on Judy clocks, begin telling time to quarter hour, use clock stamps to practice, and play computer games using Trudy's Time and Place House...

Youngsters examine how to tell time to the nearest half-hour. They discuss why people wear watches, listen to the book "What Time Is It?" by Sheila Keenan, view examples on a model clock, and complete a worksheet with the teacher.

The whole class discusses the differences between the two clocks: digital and a clock with hands. They discuss the differences between the hour hand and minute hand. Students are taught telling time to the half hour. They are introduced...

Time flies when you're teaching math! Okay, maybe not for everyone, but this lesson will have your young mathematicians calculating elapsed time before you know it.

Students study the parts of an analog and digital clock. They create paper clocks to identify telling time to the hour, half-hour, and quarter past and quarter after. They practice tellng time in pairs.

Students participate in three centers focused on developing time-telling skills. In this time lesson, students create their own paper plate clock face, play "Time Concentration" using times on the hour and half hour, as well as, practice...

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...

First graders play a fun game while learning to tell time. This BBC site is well designed. They enjoy it while learning a lot. Playing in pairs would be lots of fun.

Students generate a radioactive decay table for an imaginary element using a box filled with pinto beans and M&M's. They use their data to plot a decay graph, develop the concept of half-life, and use the graph to "age" several samples.

Save yourself a few minutes of planning with this elementary math activity on elapsed time. Through a series of collaborative and independent learning activities, children explore different real-world situations as they learn how to...

"Ode to la Tortilla" and "Ode to Joy"? Sure! Use Gary Soto's poem to introduce learners to the ode format. After examining the descriptive words Soto uses, class members study a poster of Ludwig van Beethoven, suggest words that describe...

Students estimate, measure, and compare the passage of time using minutes, half hours, and hours. They read the book 'It's About Time, Max!' with the teacher and draw an analog clock face. They show the time and 30 minutes later, 15...

Young learners engage in discussions and activities on telling time, different types of clocks, and how the parts of a clock actually work. The engage in interactive websites, hands-on games, and watch a video on the art of the clock and...

Study digital and analog times on a clock with learners. They will use the Kidspiration template to create a digital and analog time display on the computer. They also display the correct times on both analog and digital clocks when the...

What could be more relevant to teens and preteens than experiencing stress? Use an article from the New York Times website to practice valuable Common Core skills for informational text reading, and also get a discussion going in your...

Oceans absorb half of the carbon dioxide and 80 percent of the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere. Scholars learn how and why the oceans store heat more effectively than land and how they help mitigate global warming. Pupils...

A fine lesson on saving and investing is here for you and your middle schoolers. In it, learners explore the values of time and money, and discover how small amounts of money invested over time can grow into a large "pot of gold." They...

First graders identify, interpret, and gain proficiency in using a clock to tell time to the hour and determine how many minutes are in an hour. They identify and list what they do as they travel through their dayand how much time you...

An engaging and fun lesson on telling time is here for you. In it, young time-tellers listen to the song, "Rock Around the Clock," then use Judy Clocks to practice telling time to the hour and half hour. Finally, using paper plates, each...

Students discover time keeping by reading clocks.  In this time-telling instructional activity, students read the story Hickory Dickory Dock, and discuss the measurements of time we use.  Students complete worksheets in which...

For this math worksheet, students fill in the time for half hour intervals. They use the pictures of clocks to fill in the hour and second hands.

A hands-on lesson using the TI-CBR Motion Detector to provide information to graph and analyze. The class uses this information to calculate the slope of motion graphs and differentiate scalar and vector quantities. There is a real-world...

Junior geometers investigate the concepts of angles and turns using straws to perform a hands on activity. This is helpful for kinesthetic learners who have a hard time with mathematics. The lesson includes the dialogue to be used during...

Tell time using a number chart! Elementary schoolers of all ages demonstrate their ability to tell time by using a clock. They use this skill to follow a daily schedule.
