Check out these wonderful clocks that support student learning at Oceans of First Grade Fun.

In a multigrade classroom, research tells us that we need to create independent learners that know the teacher is not the only source of information. The above clocks are a perfect example of a display that creates independence and scaffolds new learning.

Our wall space is so important in our classroom. Really think how the display you are planning will help student be independent learners.


The blog, Step into 2nd Grade with Mrs.Lemons, will even let you download  6 different colors of clocks in her shared document.

Click here for the link to the time circles that are arranged around the clock from the second picture. It will take you to the same blog: Step into 2nd Grade with Mrs. Lemons.

Lastly, remember to physically get students involves with learning about measuring time on a clock. I've got some ideas about that and I will share them at a later date. Right now I'm thinking about multiplication flashcards to teach students multiplication patterns.
