List Events by Units of Time

EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

An activity designed to help students identify and list events that can be measured using seconds, minutes, or hours. Designed for early years students.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand how different events can be measured in various units of time.
  • Categorise events based on the appropriate unit of time.
  • Enhance critical thinking by brainstorming and discussing time measurement in everyday activities.

How the Activity Works:

Students are provided with prompts to help them brainstorm examples of events or activities. They then list which events can be most appropriately measured in seconds, minutes, or hours. For example, "brushing teeth" might be measured in minutes, while "running a race" could be measured in seconds, and "watching a movie" in hours. This activity helps students think about the practical application of different time units.
