What Students Need to Do

Students read and show hour and half-hour times on analog and digital clocks. They identify common coins and dollar bills by appearance and value. They count combinations of money and state the total.

02

What Mastery Looks Like

A student can match an analog clock to the correct digital time and set a clock to a given hour or half hour. The student names common coins and bills and states each value. The student accurately totals a mixed group and writes the amount with a dollar sign or cent sign.

03

Common Misconceptions

Students may switch the jobs of the hour and minute hands or read the number under the minute hand as minutes. They may judge a coin by its size instead of its value. Some count the number of coins rather than adding their values, or combine dollars and cents incorrectly.

How to Assess It

On an exit ticket, have students draw hands for 4:30 and write the total value of one $1 bill, two dimes, and three pennies.
