My time zone and your time zone may be the same time zone. Maybe midnight for you and midnight for me are the same. Your month and my month could be the same month. But they could be different. Not every day. Not all the time. Not everywhere. But some times in some places on some days. Perhaps even on the day this was written.

From days at Primary; animated & adjusted to work for -ve powers of 10 as well as +ve. Kibel [pp34-40 Miles T.R., Miles E. (2004)Dyslexia é mathematics] has +ve story to tell about Dienes blocks. Worth remembering that their use can be scaled up é down. Hence BETTER version will be made by someone with time é 3D ICT kit. It’ll ZOOM in é out to enable pupils to view (é correctly name - for US é Brit purposes!) numbers as big as a Googol é as small as... It'll use techniques like those in these slides; but combined with ZOOMING as seen in this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-Tym_6YLUI

Diamond Jubilee Wheel - Measuring Time & Space

The United +Kingdom+ is a constitutional monarchy, so resources around the Diamond Jubilee are useful. Time: aligning 60 years' worth of facts in 60 minutes or 60 seconds! Simply colour in 25 years (silver Jubilee), 50 years (Golden Jubilee) and 60 years (Diamond Jubilee). Fractions: colour & discuss the first quarter of HM QE II's reign, the second quarter, or... maybe thirds, or twelfths, or... you get the idea.
