Campamento de relojes: aprendamos a decir la hora - De 5 a 8 años - Relojes - Cómo decir la hora

Telling time on an analog clock can be a tricky concept for learners.  They may not have daily contact with many analog clocks, as many places are choosing to use digital clocks.  However, this is still a skill that is important to learn, and it is a math standard to master.   

In this positive and encouraging class, learners will have the opportunity to learn how to tell time.  We will meet four times.  Learners should bring paper and pencil to class.  A whiteboard and dry erase marker are fine as well.   I will use my teaching clock to demonstrate in each class.  Students will be actively engaged by reading the times on the clock and writing down the time on their paper. 

Class 1 - Why we need and use clocks
               Overview of the parts of a clock (hour hand, minute hand)
               Time to the hour (5:00, 5 o'clock)
Class 2 - Review of time to the hour
               Time to the half hour (5:30)
Class 3 - Review of time to the hour
               Review of time to the half hour
               Quarter hour - quarter after (5:15) and quarter till (5:45)
Class 4 - Review of time to the hour, half hour, quarter after, quarter till, and five minute increments. 

If your learner has any special needs, please let me know how I can help make him/her feel comfortable in class.  I always strive to help every learner feel accepted, confident, and competent.  I look forward to seeing your learner in this time-telling class!
