I am a primary school teacher with a knack for teaching to the multiple intelligences, particularly the visual learner. My resources are inspired by my experience of teaching different students with unique ways of learning. I love the magic of helping them to make connections in learning. The grades 3-5 are mostly what I cater to, however, I also have some great resources for grades 1 and 2.

Elapsed Time Rulers - 12 hour and 24 hour Time Spans

(0)
Elapsed Time Rulers! There are many ways to teach elapsed time and over the years I've learned that having a visual time span for the students to follow is the easiest and fastest way for them to understand and map out elapsed time for themselves. These elapsed time rulers are available in three different time spans: - 24 hour ruler (from 12:00a.m. to 12:00p.m. to 12:00a.m. again) - a.m. 12 hour ruler - p.m. 12 hour ruler I colour coded them in red and blue; red for the hours (upper half) and blue for the minutes (lower half). Five minute and fifteen minute increments are also shown in blue. Use it like a number line. Count on from the starting time to the completion time of an event. Directions are included. Teachers can print them on transparent sheets to use with an overhead projector to demonstrate their use. To print them out for the students, use 8.5 x 14 (legal) sized paper to accommodate the full length of the rulers.

Just punch a hole in each of the triangular tips and keep them on a key ring. -Large Venn Diagram rings for Attribute Sorting - To get your students proficient in sorting, start off by using one attribute ring at a time. After each attribute type is mastered, move on to using two rings, then interloping them like a Venn Diagram. It is best for students to use real 3D manipulatives but if you do not have any available, you can cut-out, print and laminate the ones found on the last page. Students can check their own work for errors by comparing the data on the flash cards with what they have matched. Your fast learners can be given more challenge by having to sort up to three or even four attributes using the interlocking Venn Diagrams. - You can also use the flash cards as labels to label shapes in the classroom!
