Time to Teach

We have started our unit on time!  I love that we teach time after we teach fractions.  Now that my students understand number lines, they transitioned into time fairly easily.

We started with a few videos and then built our anchor chart.  Of course, most of the basics, my kids remembered from last year.

Look at them building the time on the clock!

I made these anchor charts to use with my small groups. I glued them on a file folder and laminated them. My students use them as a resource when they do their work.

I will update with more anchor charts as I find them useful for my students.            

Anchor Charts

In my classroom, I see a lot of different levels of students, and I have been busy making USEFUL anchor charts.  I make them with the students so that the students feel that there is a purpose to the activity.  They also know how to use the chart because they helped make it.

This one is still in the works, but we add to it as we learn a new rule.

This one we made by reading though some word problems and identifying clues that told us what operation to use.  Some of the kids still reference it, but most of them are starting to remember what clue words to look for.

This one is what I use for my lesson on comparing numbers.  I pulled it back out when we started working with bigger numbers and it clicked.  This is a Singapore Math idea.  I just put it into steps for the students to follow.

I also have a freebie to share.  I made this t-chart to help my younger kids identify letter and numbers, however, a teacher asked me about an activity for fact and opinion and I suggested making one of these too.  So, I decided to provide an editable version so that it can be used for any age.
