Math Lesson 2-5

The document summarizes a math lesson on telling time using analog clocks. It outlines the teacher's actions which include having students estimate how long a minute is, identifying the hour and minute hands on clocks, telling time on the hour, and estimating times between hours such as 10 minutes past 4 o'clock. The lesson concludes with having students describe times like a little after 4 o'clock and between 8 o'clock and 9 o'clock.

Monday Math Lesson 2-5 (9/24) Materials: Teacher - Clock for lesson, White Board, Marker Students Clock

ock Worksheet

Teacher Actions:
o We are going to try to see if we can tell how long a minute is. I want you to close your eyes and sit quietly. When you think a minute is up, raise your hand and keep your eyes closed. ( Ill stop when it has been a minute.) Repeat, but Ill tell them when one minute is up and they can all raise their hands. Help estimate by counting to 60 as a class in unison We have different ways people use time and tools for telling time (Have students generate ideas) o Clocks- help us organize our day o Stopwatches help us figure out who is faster in a race or how much time a player has to take a turn o Calendars help us keep track of the days and months. They also help us remember and plan for important events. Point out the clocks in the classroom. These are analog clocks. Identify the hour hand and the minute hand. The hour hand is shorter. Point the minute hand straight up on practice clock. What happens to the hour hand as you move the minute hand one full circle? (The hour hand moves slower than the minute hand) Both hands pointing straight up. Move the minute hand clockwise and have the children call out the hours as the hand passes from one number to the next. So when the minute hand points straight up the hour hand points to a number. This number tells the time on the hour. Show 2oclock and write 2 oclock on the board. Move the minute hand several times around. Ask children to watch the hour hand only and say stop when they think it is pointing about halfway between two numbers. Repeat and ask children in which direction the minute hand is pointing with the hour hand is about halfway between two numbers (Its pointing straight down) Estimate the time. o Move the minute hand 10 minutes past 4 oclock. How would you describe the time shown? (After 4 oclock, between 4-5 oclock, a little after 4 oclock) o Ask the class as I move the minute hand, is the time getting closer to 4oclock or 5 oclock? o Set clock to 2 oclock. What time is it? o Set it to 8:30, How would you describe what time it is? (between 8 oclock and 9 oclock) Math Boxes 2-5, Journal page 13, write number 9 and 0 on half sheet
