1-2-3 Come Tell Digital and Analog Time With Me!

I was pretty happy; after I got done with the Whooo knows the time? owl clock. Everyone I showed it to thought it was cute.

I know that some teachers might not have the time for their kiddo’s to create the larger ones, so I decided to make mini Whooo knows the time? owl clock PADDLES. My “coin paddles” are one of our most downloaded items, so perhaps these will be a winner too.

(1.MD.3a) They can use the big one and call out a time. Using dry erase markers, children draw the hands on their clock, and the numbers on the digital side, and then hold it up. Does it match the clocks that the teacher is holding? You can whole-group assess in seconds!

Print off the colored ones, or run off the black and white template on white construction paper. Students color their owls any color they want. Laminate and return to them to cut and glue to a Popsicle stick, gluing the analog owl on one side and the digital clock on the other.

Mr. Clean Erasers do a nice job of cleaning dry erase, and even permanent marker off laminate! Students only need a small square of the eraser, so cut your Mr. Clean ones in 8 pieces.

You could also make a few of the big clocks and have students partner up. One plays the teacher, and the other shows their student-paddle.  This is a great way to pair up a strong student, with a struggler, for more one-on-one review time.
