Contributor: Breighel Buggs Sample NearPod Lesson First grade students will learn how to tell and write time using analog and digital clocks that cover hours in this unit. The terms analog, clockwise, counterclockwise, hour, minute, second, and digital may be unfamiliar to students. Students will be able to actively participate in a class simulation using a oor clock in which they will volunteer to be the big and little hands on the analog clock in order to visualize the hours in an engaging way. For simple visual access, instruction will include a digital clock on the projector. The student should be able to tell the right hour position on a digital and analog clock at this level of the unit lesson. The vocabulary concepts for working with time will be discussed in class: analog, clockwise, counterclockwise, hour, minute, second, and digital. Demonstrations, face-to-face coaching, printed materials, and group activities will be used to teach students about digital and analog clocks. Students should learn how to tell time using analog and digital clocks since knowing the time is essential for being punctual in society. Students can progress their learning to eventually show the time on either clock when given a time in hours and half hours, whether am or pm, if they comprehend the vocabulary and have mastered how to tell time by transferring hours from an analog to a digital clock. Students can then progress to a more complex level of the standard and improve their skills. The digital resources that
