I love this activity so much! It covers multiple standards, but the one I am focusing on is 1.M.3. For this activity, students combine their skills of telling time AND finding the value of money(coins). I would not glue the coins to the clock like the directions say because I would want the students to be able to find multiple ways of using coins to find different times on the clock.

To cover standard 1.M.2, I found an interactive game for first graders to practice reading digital clocks. There are levels for telling hours, half hours, and quarters of time. I played it myself and even enjoyed it!

This template can simply be turned into from a daily template to a weekly template. I love the cutesiness of it for an elementary school teacher. It is organized with the spelling words of the week and times that each subject begins and ends.

A dog is divided into 3 parts, front, middle, and back. Students have to place the picture on the correct section of the dog depending on where the letter being worked on occurs in the corresponding word to the picture. This activity could be used for standard 1.RF.3.4. Modifications to the activity would have to be made so that one syllable words were being used instead of words containing multiple syllables. Students could complete this activity during center/free time.

Froggie wants to get home, but there are so many lily pads and flowers on the way! Here's a simple game you and your kindergarten child can make together to teach counting and the number line, while having a good time, too! This activity would coincide with the standard: K.NS.1: Count to at least 100 by ones and tens and count on by one from any number
