**Area: //Time Measurement//**


__Overview:__ Think about how many times you ask your parents "What time is it?" or "How much longer until dinner?" A lot, right? Well, after this week you will be the one telling your parents what time it is! Whether it is 7:00 in the morning on Monday or 8:30 at night on Friday, you will become familiar with the days of the week. You will also know how to read clocks! Exciting!

__Objectives:__ The objectives for this lesson are for the students to know the seven days of the week, the parts of each day such as morning, afternoon, evening, and night, and the times corresponding to each part. Two days of the lesson will be used to introduce the parts of a clock and to tell time in hour and half hour increments first and then quarter and minute increments second. Throughout the week, students will work individually and in groups to apply the material to reach a better understanding.
