Clocks

In math, the children have been learning about clocks and time. They have been practicing naming and identifying the hands on a clock, learning the number of seconds in a minute, minutes in an hour and hours in a day and telling time to the hour and half hour. We have done several experiments to discover how time is relative to what you are doing. The children sat quietly for one minute and then tried to do a task in one minute. They discovered that a minute feels like a long time when you aren’t doing anything.
