Identifying Coins
This is a wonderful lesson that was created by Ms. Jackson for her 1st grade virtual learning class. This video is a great way to reiterate the lesson utilizing another speaker (teacher) to provide information about coins and their values in a different way. This would be useful if students were online learners or for review using the classroom computer or at home. Kindergarten is all about repetition and this video would allow students to review if necessary.

This genereationgenus.com website offers in depth information about how to tell time on the hour and half hour. In this website, it provides hyperlinks to different types of dependent questions a student may ask, vocabulary, and activities that include word problems and number problems to help students gain more knowledge about clocks and telling time. When you click on the hyperlink labeled reading material it takes you to a page that talks about what that clock is and what its different forms look like, talks about what the use of a clock is, and the many places you may see clocks. I thought it was a great addition to have a button for reading aloud the information on the page. The assessment feature can help students assess their own progress. This would make the website very accessible for students that are not as proficient at reading. Lastly, this website includes a teacher guide and lesson plan option to assist teachers in their planning.
