Two printouts are used for this clock printout. In this example, I printed both pages on green printer paper and glued to a paper plate. Telling time is an important lesson for younger children and this lesson helps to understand the minute associated with the numbers on the clock.
MATERIALS:
- Printer paper either white or colors.
- Paper plate – optional
- Craft glue or glue stick
- Scissors
- Hole punch
- Paper brad (fastener)
- Paper hole reinforcers
- Clock printout
- Minute hand printout
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Print out the Clock printout and Minute hand printout. Note: When printing a PDF document, select actual size.
- Have children cut out the two circles, notching the smaller circle where indicated. Also cut out the hour hand from this printout.
- Punch a hole in the hour hand where indicated. To make the movable hour hand more secure, attach a paper hole reinforcer to both sides of the punched circle.
- The teacher or adult will need to gently fold both circles and make a small notch in the center where the circle in shown.
- With the brad, add the hour hand, smaller circle and larger circle then secure the brad in the back of the larger, clock circle.
- Glue to a paper plate if you would like.
SUGGESTIONS:
- Instead of printing on white paper, use colored printer paper for a more decorative clock.
