### <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Introduction Activity (30 minutes):</span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">TIME BINGO Distribute bingo cards with different clock faces. Call out times like "3 o'clock" or "6:30." Students mark the corresponding clock. The first to get a full row wins! </span>

### <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Main Activity (45 minutes):</span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Objective: Help students recognize time on the clock. </span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">**BUILD YOUR CLOCK (15 minutes)** </span>

1. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Each student makes their own clock using a paper plate and paper hands. </span>
2. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Practice setting the time as the teacher calls out different hours and half-hours. </span>
3. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Students then quiz each other using their homemade clocks. </span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">**Interactive Game: DAILY TIME CHALLENGE (10 minutes)** </span>

1. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Display pictures of daily activities (e.g., brushing teeth, going to school). </span>
2. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Students match the correct time to the activity. </span>
3. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Use flashcards and toy clocks to reinforce time concepts. </span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">**Time to Solve (20 Minutes)** </span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">**Time telling activity** </span>

1. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Introduce the Concept:  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Explain what “half past” means: the minute hand is on the 6 (30 minutes), and the hour hand is halfway between two numbers.  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">For “half past one,” the minute hand is on the 6 and the hour hand is halfway between 1 and 2.</span>
2. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Demonstrate on a Teaching Clock:  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Move the hands to show “1:30.”  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Say: “It’s half past one because it’s 30 minutes past one o’clock.”</span>
3. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Hands-On Practice:  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Give each child a clock and ask them to show “half past one.”  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Walk around and correct if needed.</span>
4. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Draw the Time:  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">On a worksheet with blank clocks, ask the children to draw the hands for “half past one.”  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Minute hand to 6  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Hour hand between 1 and 2</span>
5. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Reinforce with Examples:  
    </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Say different “half past” times and let them set the clocks or draw the time.</span>

### <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Review Questions/Assessment/Tasks (10 minutes): </span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Ask:</span>

1. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">What does the short hand show?</span>
2. What time is it when the big hand is on 6?
3. Can you show me 2:00 on your clock?

### <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Follow up Tasks (5 minutes): </span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Homework: </span>

1. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Draw clocks showing three things you do at home and write the time</span>
2. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Observe a wall clock and write down what time you go to sleep. </span>
3. <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Quiz a friend or family member using your homemade clock. </span>

### <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Expected Learning Outcome: </span>

<span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">**Knowledge building**</span>

- <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Understanding the position of clock hands. </span>
- <span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Telling time to the hour and half hour. </span>
