Telling Time Pixies

The 3rd Grade students in Ms. McGirt and Ms. Knox’s class enjoyed practicing their time skills using Pixie.  In the first part of our lesson, students had to look at the hands on a clock and determine the time. In the next set of slides, students were given the time and had to practice adding the hour and minute hands to a blank clock. Finally, in the last few slides, the students had to read the 2 analog clocks and record the times in the digital clocks.  Next, I showed them a strategy for drawing with the paint tool on the clock to jump from one hour to the next and figure out the elapsed time.
