Chapter 13: Time Goes On
Clocks help us read the time. There are 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week. Putting events in the right order is part of computational thinking too.
Learning outcomes
- Read time on analog and digital clocks
- Sequence events in days, weeks and months
Activities
- Build a daily timeline
