Start Practicing Telling Time

Our next math unit will be on time.  A large part of the unit is on elapsed time, so students will need to be able to read an analog clock to the minute.  This is usually a skill students needs some practice with.  I would strongly encourage students to go on iXL.com and practice under the time sections in second and third grade before doing fourth grade.  I will show them how to do the elapsed time in a variety of ways in class.  Then they can choose which works best for them.
