Resources for practice with clocks and time?

[gamommy]

I'm hoping someone will have a 'gem' of a free site to suggest. We're using singapore with our 1st grader and she's doing great but we need some additional reinforcement on this topic.

 

TIA,

Not online, but McGraw Hill's Complete Book of Time and Money can be used for multiple years and has all the reinforcement you'll ever need, LOL!

Kumon has 2 workbooks on time.

I second the vote for the Kumon Time workbooks.

 

Also, if you can find a geared "Judy" clock, these are helpful. Try Rainbow Resource for these.

My favorite thing for time is the Judy clock and lots of slow practice. For something free, Worksheetworks.com has some great free worksheets that you can customize for what you need to practice and then print out.

I had my dd make a clock out of a paper plate and construction paper hands attached with a brad. She wrote the numbers on it, and we took turns telling the time or setting the time.

We are also doing Singapore and for some reason the time section in level 2 sas just not cutting it for my daughter. I thought we were *never* going to get through that! Of course, we haven't gotten to that section in Singapore 3 yet;)--I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Data analysis is much easier this year.

 

In first grade, I had picked up some Disney and Barbie time and money workbooks from the dollar store to help reinforce. She liked the stickers, etc. Last year in second grade, we used a section of Math Mammoth called Clock. I got it as a freebie download from Currclick last year (they offer a different ebook for free each week or so), but it is only $3.50 to download from the author

$3 from Currclick http://www.currclick.com/product_info.php?products_id=15581&it=1

 

This will cover all the way up to minutes (basically third grade material), so you could do only the appropriate chapters and save the rest for later if you like. I like this series and will probably come to it first for things in which my daughter needs more practice than Singapore gives. The nice thing is that since it is an ebook, it is stored on my computer and I can print out the relevant sections again this year if we turn out to need them.

 

We had borrowed a large geared teaching clock from a friend

but they have a smaller version of these

Check with a local teacher supply store and see what they have.

This web site is free and very customizable. I used it with my daughter when "The Complete Book of Time and Money" didn't have enough practice pages.

Thank you! I knew the HIVE would come through.
