In mathematics we are working on telling time.

Please try the links below for games

Grade One Expectations

estimate, measure, and describe the passage

of time, through investigation using nonstandard

units (e.g., number of sleeps;

number of claps; number of flips of a sand

timer);

– read demonstration digital and analogue

clocks, and use them to identify benchmark

times (e.g., times for breakfast,

lunch, dinner; the start and end of school;

bedtime) and to tell and write time to the

hour and half-hour in everyday settings;

– name the months of the year in order, and

read the date on a calendar;

Grade Two Expectations

tell and write time to the quarter-hour,

using demonstration digital and analogue

clocks (e.g.,“My clock shows the time

recess will start [10:00], and my friend’s

clock shows the time recess will end

[10:15].”);

– construct tools for measuring time intervals

in non-standard units (e.g., a particular

bottle of water takes about five seconds

to empty);
