ValenTIME and a Hook on a Brook

This week was a week of LOVE!!  Everything we did had a Valentine theme!!  I wish I would have taken more pictures of everything but here are some pictures of our math centers:

   

Sweet Time Sorting – Concept of Time

The students read each heart card and decided: 
Will it take 2 seconds? 2 minutes? or 2 hours?

 

Read the Hall Time – Time to the Half-hour

The students looked at the analog clocks and wrote the digital time on their paper.

  

Love of a LifeTIME- Time to the Half-hour

The students drew hands on the clock to match the digital time on each heart.

 

Memory Match Time – Time to the Half-Hour

The students maked the digital and analog clocks.

 

Measuring Candy Hearts – Nonstandard Unit

The students estimated and measured each line with large and small candy hearts.

You can find all of the Time to the Half-hour Centers in my ValenTIME Unit of TPTHERE!

You can find the Concept of Time activity FREE on TPT HERE!

On Fridays I introduce next week’s Phonics Skill to get a little head start on ALL of the teaching that happens on Mondays.  Here is a look at our Word Work Center:

 

Hookin the Brook -- /oo/ Word Work

The students will sort each fish and decide if it has the /oo/ sound like in hook and if it doesn't have the /oo/ sound they will put it back in the water.

We learned that sometimes the oo says /oo/ like in Hook in the Brook.  We talked about how it almost sounds like someone hits you in the belly.
