LESSON OUTCOME:
(Key Knowledge and Skills students should achieve in the lesson taken from relevant curriculum documents.) (Procedural Knowledge able to do) Recall the days of the week and months of the year Explain their thinking when comparing time units. (Declarative Knowledge knows or understands) Make connections between time units

LESSON STRUCTURE: Time 11.3011.45am Introduction (Set): You did some work recently with Mrs Burke regarding how long it might take you to do certain things/activities. Those of you who were in my maths activity group last week learnt how long exactly a minute is by doing certain activities for a whole minute eg skipping a rope, hopscotch, bouncing a ball, writing your full name as many times as possible before the one minute timer went off. Sometimes a minute seems to go on forever if we are getting tired such as skipping rope. Sometimes it seems to go really quickly eg watching TV. Well talk about different time units in this lesson and well start with the days of the week 7 students to hold cards at front of class: Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat. Students organise themselves in order from the first day of the week.

Song to Adams Family with clapping and finger clicking

Theres Sunday and theres Monday.. and then theres Saturday, click, click

4 students to hold

cards: hour, day, week, month, year

Ask for a volunteer to organise students by duration of shortest to longest units of time. Mix students up then ask another volunteer to organise from longest to shortest unit of time

Highlight on whiteboard: 7 days 4 weeks and 2-3 days 12 months Focus Questions: Days make up a .. week . How many days in a week? What day of the week does the week start? Weeks make up a . . month How many days in this month? 31 . Months make up a .. year? How many months in a year? 12 months make up a year Days, Weeks, Months all relate to units of time = 1 week = 1 month = 1 year

How do you remember how many days are in each month?

Months Rhyme
30 days has September, April, June, and November. All the rest have 31, except February which has 28 or 29 each leap year And

Knuckles for days in each month

Mountains and valleys starting at little finger on right hand Mountains have 31 days Valleys have 30 days Except Feb which has 28 days, and 29 days each leap year.

Today, Yesterday and Tomorrow:

What day is it today? Tuesday What is todays date? 27th August, 2013 What day/date was it yesterday? What day/date will it be tomorrow? How did you work that out? What can we use to tell us which days of the week fall on particular dates? Calendar. Why do we use calendars? For different purposes: . knowing which days to come to school . staying organised (reading activities on Monday, Tuesday, Wed, Thurs), library borrowing (Thursday), spelling (Friday), remember special occasions (birthdays and festivals) . remembering events: Planetarium excursion and Fun Run What days do we come to school? What days do we stay home and not come to school? What is another word for these days? How many days in this month? How can you work that out if you dont have a calendar The hills and valleys with knuckles, or the months song How many weeks are in this month? Reiterate: . days make up the weeks . weeks make up a month . months make up . a year

Show Clever Calendar on IWB: August 2013

Ask students to identify, circle and label different time units. . day . date . month . year Then, students to identify class events (Planetarium, Fun Run, birthdays in August, assemblies, other special occasions).

Model working out the duration to an event by identifying todays

date and counting the days to / from the event. Have a student identify How many days since our excursion. Other students come out to identify the number of days for various examples, such as: . days until the weekend? . since the weekend? . days since the last students birthday? .days since the fun run? . days until Grandparents day? .days until Spelling? . days until Library day?

Comparing and ordering time units

Which is the shorter /longer time: an hour, a day, a week or a month? What makes you think that? Display time unit cards on whiteboard: hour, day, week, month How long would it take you to: Play a board game with friends? Drive to the beach/river, have a picnic and swim and come home again? Go on holidays on Wednesday and come back home the following Tuesday? See a seed grow into a large plant?

What is something you could do in an hour? A lesson What is something you could take a week to do? Homework, or spelling What is something that could happen over a month? Dioramas Lets compare units of time with activities we do during the day. ICT was that more like an hour, day, week or month? Reading activities was that more like an hour, day, week or month? Lunch time is that an hour, day, week or month? School day? Holiday? From Art day at school to the next Art dayl? Overseas trip? School term?

Allocate a time unit to 6 groups of 4 (2 groups will dbl up on days)

Draw pictures (on a large sheet) of activities or experiences that match the time unit. Was it easy or difficult to find activities to match your time unit? Why do you think that? Does your unit time match your activity? Explain Is your time unit longer or shorter than (an hour, a day, a week, a month)? Have one student from each group hold the group sheet and ask the students to order their time units from the shortest time to the longest. Repeat ordering from longest time unit to shortest.

If time: Quiz Boys versus Girls (tally marks)

How many days in a week? How many days in this month? How many days in September? Is a week more or less than a month? How many months in a year? How many weeks in this month? 4 r 3 days

Is a month or a day longer? True or false. An hour is longer than a day? True or false. Art lessons are long than the school day? Is lunch shorter than PE? Is morning tea longer than lunch? Are the September school holidays longer than a day?

If time:
In Work Books, divide page into 3 columns: Write something you did yesterday, today and will do tomorrow . Draw accompanying pictures.
