analog clock with the minute and second hands removed. See Materials Preparation.

Materials Preparation

Prepare a One-Handed Clock. Prepare an analog clock face that has only the hour hand attached. One way to do this is to take an analog clock that no longer works and simply remove the minute and second hands. If you do not have access to a clock, you can make a one-handed clock using the Clock Master.

Prepare Optional Targeted Practice. Copy and cut apart the One-Handed Clock Cards Master and the Time Story Cards Master. A blank One-Handed Clock Cards Master is provided to create additional clock cards for additional stories.
