Unit 5: Measuring Time
Purpose/Focus: Students tell (orally and in writing) and write time after reading analog and digital clocks. Time should be to 5 minute intervals, and students should also use the terms a.m. and p.m. Students should understand that there are 2 cycles of 12 hours in a day-a.m. and p.m.. Recoding their daily actions in a journal would be helpful for making real-world connections and understanding the difference between these two cycles. ( SJUSD Division of Instruction, June 2013)
2.MD.7 Tell and write time form analog and digital clocks to the nearest 5 minutes, using a.m. and p.m..
