1. Make a Paper Plate Clock (You will need a paper plate, thick paper or cardboard for the clock hands, markers or crayons, and a paper fastener.)
2. Play a Game. (You will need a paper plate clock or clock with adjustable hands, a coin, and two dice.)
1. Make a Paper Plate Clock (You will need a paper plate, thick paper or cardboard for the clock hands, markers or crayons, and a paper fastener.)
- Write the numbers on the paper plate to look like a clock.
- Cut a short, skinny rectangle for the hour hand.
- The word "hour" is shorter than the word minute, so write the word "hour" on the short, skinny rectangle.
- Cut a long, skinny rectangle for the minute hand.
- The word "minute" is longer than the word hour, so write the word "minute" on the long, skinny rectangle.
- Push a paper fastener through the end of the hour hand, then through the end of the minute hand, and then through the center of the paper plate.
- Take a picture of your paper plate clock and post it on your portfolio in Class Dojo.
2. Play a Game. (You will need a paper plate clock or clock with adjustable hands, a coin, and two dice.)
- If you are playing with more than one person, the person with the longest arms goes first.
- On your turn, flip a coin.
- If it lands on heads, you'll move the hour hand.
- If it lands on tails, you'll move the minute hand.
- Next, roll the two dice and add the numbers together. That is where you need to move your clock hand.
- Then you need to say, "The ___ hand is on the ___."
- Example: Tim flips a coin and it lands on tails. He then rolls a 2 and a 5 on the dice. He adds 2 and 5 to get 7 (2+5=7). He moves the minute hand to the 7. He says, "The minute hand is on the 7." Tim is correct.
- If you are correct you get 10 points and that is the end of your turn.
- The game is over when the first person gets to 110 points.
- Record yourself playing this game and post it on your portfolio on Class Dojo.
