Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson plan

Topic

Analog Clock and Telling Time

Objectives

• Students will be able to identify the parts of an analog clock.
• Students will learn to tell time to the hour and half-hour.
• Students will demonstrate understanding by reading times displayed on an analog clock.

Grade/Age Group

Year 2 (ages 7-8)

Subject

Mathematics

Materials

• Analog clock models (at least 2)
• Worksheets with clock faces
• Markers or pencils
• Whiteboard and markers
• Timer (for classroom activities)

Class Size

20 students

Duration

30 minutes

National Curriculum Alignment

This lesson aligns with the Australian Curriculum for Mathematics, specifically focusing on measurement and geometry related to telling time.

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction	5 minutes	Introduce the topic of telling time. Show students an analog clock and explain its parts (hour hand, minute hand, face). Ask questions to engage students.
2	Demonstration	5 minutes	Use a clock model to demonstrate telling time on the hour and half-hour. Illustrate an example of each (e.g., 2:00, 2:30).
3	Guided Practice	10 minutes	Distribute worksheets with different clock faces. Work through the first few examples together as a class, asking students to identify the time shown.
4	Independent Practice	5 minutes	Students complete the rest of the worksheet independently, practicing telling time on the analog clocks provided.
5	Homework Assignment	2 minutes	Explain the homework task: practice drawing their own analog clocks showing different times. Remind them to be creative!
6	Conclusion and Recap	3 minutes	Recap the lesson by asking students what they learned about telling time. Encourage participation but keep it brief. Reinforce the next lesson's topic.

Homework

• Students will create their own analog clock drawings showing different times of the hour and half-hour. Check homework in class without formal presentations, focusing on encouraging further practice during the next lesson.

Assessment

• Observe student participation and understanding during guided and independent practice.
• Review completed worksheets to ensure students can accurately tell time on an analog clock.

Additional Notes

• Ensure to provide support to students who may struggle during independent practice.
• Adapt the lesson to include additional practice for students who finish early. Consider integrating digital clock comparisons if time permits.
