In this lesson I address a first-grade math standard
regarding telling time. Ohio 1.MD.B.3 States that student should be able to
tell and write time in hours and half-hours using analog and digital clocks.
After this lesson unit, students will have learned the attributes or parts of a
clock and how to use analog and digital clocks to tell time to the hour and
half hour.
This lesson also includes three technology components. A PowerPoint Online Broadcast that is designed to be a game that reinforces student's ability to tell time to the hour and half hour. In the beginning of the presentation, students simply recite the times (24hrs) on the digital clocks. Later, In the presentation, they have to select the correct digital that matches the time on each analog clock.

I also created a component through Classtools.net. It is a scavenger hunt using QR codes. The QR code would be placed around the classroom and students would scan them with their iPad cameras to answer the questions embedded in the QR codes. The questions are simply term matches for time telling vocabulary.

My third component is a Plickers app component. It is a short assessment of the standards I addressed in this lesson. The plickers app assigns students with answer cards that I print out. As the questions are presented on SmartBoard, students can hold up the correct the answer codes that I scan with my smart phone. The app scores and extrapolates the answer by class and by individual student.
The Plickers app does not allow me to provide a link to my questions, answers and grade reports, however, I screenshoted the various user interfaces to give you a general idea of how the app works,
