1st Grade Telling Time Math Journal Prompts

This 1st grade paperless EDITABLE math journal for telling time will save your math block, your sanity, your time–you name it! Mess-less, stress-less, and (almost) paperless! These 1st grade telling time math journal prompts will engage your students, make them think creatively, and have fun!

Prompts are organized to cut down on teacher direction-giving time during the busy math block. The electronic nature of the prompts creates a COPY-FREE product for teachers! The left side of the screen is a simple math prompt and the right side of the screen features an example layout of a student notebook. Students simply respond to prompts daily in their math journals by copying the example layout on the screen.

Topics Included:

• Parts of an analog clock
• Tell time (to the hour and half hour)
• Compare analog and digital clocks
• Use the terms ‘o’clock’, ‘half past’ and ‘thirty’ to tell time
• Draw hands to indicate hour and half hour

*Please view the preview to see a detailed list of all skills included*

Math prompts are included in 3 formats so you can choose which one is best for your class and curriculum timeline:

• Whiteboard-ready paperless version (project onto any white surface–no interaction component required)
• Printable version to cut and paste right into a math journal
• Google Slides-NEW!!

*Each unit is color-coded so it is easy to see which skill is being projected on any given day. Each slide is ALSO number-coded to correspond with a skill key so teachers can look at any student journal page and quickly identify the skill and its content.

THE BEST PART?! This journal pack is almost 100% editable to fit to your classroom. ALL text is editable so you can:

• Change names in prompts to match your students’ names
• Change numbers in prompts to differentiate OR reuse the same prompt in a different way
• Change the slide title if you choose to use this as a small group activity rather than a math journal

No whiteboard? No problem! Printable versions of prompts are also included!

Included in this pack, you will receive:

• 15 editable journal prompts in whiteboard and print formats

This math journal is ideal for 1st grade but might be able to be used in other grade levels depending on your students.
