Review

Students in my first-grade classes enjoyed seeing all the photographs. We tested the examples of seconds and agreed with most of the samples. We also counted to sixty to see if sixty seconds are actually one minute. . . .The series could be good source for making students aware of the meaning of time and how each part of the clock has a different function, but much teacher instruction would be needed as well.-- "Teaching Children Mathematics, NCTM"
