HOMEWORK 11-29-12

Today we introduced telling time to the half hour.  This is tricky for some students.  Many have problems understanding that the hour hand gradually moves throughout the hour and at the half hour it is located halfway between the present hour and the next hour.  Please help your child by pointing this out when you are looking at analog clocks.  Also, when asked to draw times on the analog clock, make sure that they are drawing the hour hand between the present hour and the next hour. 

Tonight's homework asks the students to match analog and digital clocks.  Please have your child complete the activity.  This activity is located on the IXL site.  It is free, but limits the amount of time you can use it in one day.  Keep this in mind as your child uses the site.

After doing IXL, have your child play one game on Education City.  It can be either a Language Arts or Math activity. 

COMMENT BOX:  Write in the comment box telling what activity your child played on Education City.
