Telling Time! Matching Analog Clocks and Digital Clocks 2nd Grade Lesson Plan Post #9

 I was able to teach my students about time earlier in the school year. I believe that teaching students at a young age about time is extremely important. I found a website called ixl.com that has excellent activities and resources for 2nd grade in regard to time. I wish that I would have known about this website sooner.

In the above activity, students would first read the time that is shown on the analog clock. Then, the question asks what time the analog clock shows, and how would it look like on a digital clock. I really like how if you click on the blue speaker, the directions as well as the question is read out loud to the student. I also like how this website gives the students a refresher of how to read time on a analog clock if they really get stuck.

Reflecting back on this resource and lesson, I think it would be a useful website to help students continue to learn about time. By the 2nd grade students should already be familiar with time.

The website and link I used is: https://www.ixl.com/math/grade-2/match-analog-and-digital-clocks

New York State Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards: 

NY-2.MD: Work with time and money. Tell and write from analog and digital clocks in five minute increments, using a.m. and p.m. Develop an understanding of common terms, such as, but not limited to, quarter past, half past, and quarter to.
