Instructional Ideas
  • Give each child an opportunity to practice the analog clocks on their own or with a partner, before going over them as a whole class
  • Sit your class in a large circle and each child will have to listen and participate when it is their turn as they count by fives in a round robin method until they reach 55. Then demonstrate on an analog clock that each number starting at one represents five-minute increments just like they were counting by fives
  • Use all activities as math work station centers so that the kids get to rotate to each one
Classroom Considerations
  • Many copies will need to be made, try using card stock paper for the concentration cards
  • Make sure your classroom is rich with books about time telling
  • Digital clock black line will need copy machine adjustments for the dark colors used
Pros
  • Black line master copies of digital and analog clocks can be used in any language
  • Hands-on-activities and games to tell time are educating and entertaining
