\nToday we wrapped up our time unit<\/a> with some fun math centres. All of the centres will be available to you as freebie downloads!\u00a0Merry Christmas!<\/i><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAt the first centre, the kiddies got to practice drawing the hands on an analogue clock by picking a time card and using a whiteboard marker to show the correct time:<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/a><\/div>\n
\n(Click HERE<\/a> to grab this centre! FYI: I printed 5 of the clock faces and backed them on construction paper for durability before laminating)<\/i><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThe second centre was a matching game where my firsties worked together to choose an analogue clock card, read the time, and find the matching written and digital time card:<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nNext up, the students practiced writing digital times by choosing a card, reading the time on the analogue clock, and writing the correct digital time below with a dry erase marker:<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/a><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nLast but not least, this last centre combined math and art! This bunch of firsties loves to draw and colour so I simply had plain white paper, markers, and round plastic buckets (to use for tracing) <\/i>available at the centre and the kids got to draw their own creative clock creatures. Of course I was all about the correct hand and number placement and they were all about their adorable creations:<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\nIn the end I had some cat clocks, bunny clocks, bear clocks, flower clocks, monster clocks, and more!\u00a0<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nOverall the Time Centres were a total hit. We spent about 10 minutes at each centre and my little ones were engaged right from beginning to end. Success!<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nTomorrow, I plan on reading this book<\/a>:<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\nIt’s the perfect book for ending our math unit since the ladybug goes through his day by time to the hour and half hour. As I read, the kids will show me each time on their mini clocks for extra practice. We use these:<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n(We have a class set from Scholar’s Choice<\/a>)<\/i><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAfter our book, we will do one quick final assessment worksheet:<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n(Grab this free worksheet HERE<\/a>!)<\/i><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n…And that will be that for time! Next up, addition and subtraction<\/strike> Christmas Concert practice! Just when I think things could not get any busier… \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n

\nEnjoy the rest of your week!!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
