Unit 7, Lesson 15
Write Times
Grade 1
Preparation
Lesson Narrative
In the previous lesson, students connected “half past” the hour to half of an analog clock face. They told time in hours and half hours on clocks that only had an hour hand. At the end of the lesson, they learned that when it is half past the hour, the minute hand points to the 6.
In this lesson, students connect half an hour to the digital form ___:30. Students write the time in hours and half hours, based on analog clocks. They add the digital form to the half-past clock cards.
