Well, "time" is something I could definitely use a little more of. How about you? It's going on midnight here, but I'm determined to finish this up before I go to bed. (Did I mention I still have to pack for our family mini-vacation tomorrow?)
I was doing a little marking of some math practice tests for our standardized testing (our testing isn't until the end of May / beginning of June). And YIKES!!! The concept of time is something my students definitely aren't getting. I'm planning on doing a few more formal lessons, but I thought I'd make up some cootie catchers to add to our Friday math centres. My class LOVES the cootie catchers, so I might as well capitalize on it, right???
This package contains 7 different cootie catchers: an introduction to time, four for elapsed time (in varying degrees of difficulty to meet the MANY different levels in my classroom), one elapsed time word problems, and one for the 24-hour clock (a learning goal for my grade 6 students). I've uploaded this product to my
TPT Store and my
Teacher's Notebook store. You can click on the picture to the right to preview this at my TPT store.
And, if you're looking for a little more time ... I will email a copy to the
first 3 people to leave a comment with their email address.
Happy Wednesday! So looking forward to our mini-vacation tomorrow! YAY!!!
