= Telling time to the nearest 5-minute and 30-minute interval  =

= **NEAREST 5 MINUTES** =

Objective: Students will use their knowledge of "skip counting" by 5's to identify time to the nearest 5-minute and 30-minute interval

** NYS Standards: **
2.N.1 Skip count to 100 by 2's, 5's, 10's 2.M.9 Tell time to the half hour and five minutes using both digital and analog clocks 2.PS.8 Use manipulatives to model the action in problems 2.CN.9 Recognize and apply mathematics to objects, pictures, and symbols 2.N.10 Use and understand verbal ordinal terms 2.R.1 Use multiple representation including verbal and written language, acting out or modeling a situation, drawings, and or symbols as representations

** Key concepts: **

 * 1) **Each number on an analog clock represents 5 minutes of time**
 * 2) **Starting at "1" on an analog clock, skip count by fives to identify time to the minute**
 * 3) **When the minute hand is on the "6" of an analog clock, we say, "thirty" to represent 30 minutes of time**
 * 4) **When the minute hand is on the "12" of an analog clock, we say the number that the small hand is pointing to followed by the phrase, "o'clock"**



**Measure of Success: Students will be able to identify time by 5-minute and 30-minute intervals**

Lesson: Start lesson by having students practice "skip counting" aloud by 5's, stopping at 60. With a judy clock to demonstrate and starting at "1", move the minute hand forward one digit clockwise each time they count off. Continue to 60 ("12"), and begin again. Give students their own clock. Have them practice the same routine with partners. When students are successful, ask them what they notice when they stop half way around the clock, (on "6") Facilitate a conversation about these 30 minute intervals. Provide more practice with printable worksheets below. Clock Bingo below, (links to additional practice) can also be used to reinforce students time telling ability.

Differentiated Options:

__// Audio Learners //__ :
 * Students will practice chanting intervals of five as they skip count
 * Students will listen as "KIDS EXPLAIN IT! below

__// Tactile Learners //__ : Provide "Judy Clocks" for individual students so that they can manipulate the "small hand" as they skip count by 5's

__// English Language learners //__ :
 * Label the "Judy Clocks" with the following vocabulary: Label the number "6" with the word thirty. Label the number "12" with the word, O'CLOCK
 * Telling time in Spanish...see technology links

__// Visual Learners //__ : Display the following clocks on the smartboard
