We have been working on telling time to the hour and half hour. I found this cute activity from Teacher Idea Factory to practice telling time. I had the kids draw a clock on their desks (we are lucky to have desks that we can write on). Then I gave each of them a piece of licorice. I told him that the licorice was going to be our hands on the clock. We had to break the piece into 2 pieces (one short and one long for the hands on the clock). Then we got started practicing the time. The kids had a blast with it and if they followed directions then they got to enjoy a piece of licorice at the end.
We have also been working on words with oi/oy and I found this cute activity from First Grade W.O.W. The students had to come up with words with oi and oy. They made a list of them on their desks and then at the end they came up with 2 more words with oi/oy and used a mini chips ahoy cookie as the o in their words. They were more than ready to come up with some words for me because once they did they got to eat the cookies.
Have a great day!
Love the clock idea. :)
