Access Point #: MAFS.2.MD.3.AP.7aArchived Access Point

Tell and write time in hours and half-hours using analog and digital clocks.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Identify the hour hand and minute hand on an analog clock.
  • Identify on the analog clock that if the minute hand is on the 6, it represents thirty minutes. If the minute hand is on the 12, it represents the whole hour (o’clock).
  • Identify that on the digital clock the hour is located to the left of the colon and the minutes are located to the right of the colon.
Representation:
  • Identify the hour hand and minute hand on a visual representation of an analog clock.
  • Identify hours and minutes on a visual representation of a digital clock.
  • Match the written time to the time that appears on an analog clock to the hour and half-hour.
  • Match the correct wording of the time to the analog and digital clock. (ex: 12:00 would be worded as 12 o’clock, 6:30 would be worded as six thirty).

Category: Access Points
Cluster: Work with time and money. (Supporting Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
