COMPLEMENTARY ACTIVITIES Write down the time of each clock.

COMPLEMENTARY ACTIVITIES Find your couple

We take as many chairs as pupils are and on top of the chairs we leave some sheets with clocks drawn on them, with the face down and some other sheets with the time written on them. The pupils have to dance around the chairs, when the music stops; each pupil take the sheet of its chair and look for the complementary couple. Once they are together the one that has the time written on the sheet has to read in it aloud.

Example

EIGHT O’ CLOCK

COMPLEMENTARY ACTIVITIES Playing bingo with the time.

We give out bingo cards to the pupils and the teacher will say aloud times until one of the pupils says BINGO! Then we will have to check that the bingo is correct.
