2. You are going to be creating your very own Math Clock
You are going to be creating your very own Math Clock! You will create equations and expressions that give you the answers 1 through 12 to put on the clock.
I had one of these I bought from Amazon hanging on my wall all year so my students knew what it was. If you have one of these clocks, talk to the students about it or refer to it.

3. This project will cover many concepts we have learned this year
This project will cover many concepts we have learned this year. Your clock will need:
3 Order of Operations with whole numbers
3 Order of Operations with integers
3 One step Equations
1 Rational number operation
2 Proportions
The clock can be more focused- using it to review a basic concept, or it can be at the end of the year covering multiple concepts.

4. Here are some student examples
Here are some student examples. The one on the left is even a working clock!!
Students were provided: Colored pencils, markers, brads, post-it notes, thick paper, Some students brought glitter glue and googly eyes. Students traced the clock using the top of a stool or trash can. The clocks had a 12in diameter approximately.

5. Take a look at the Rubric to see how you will be graded on this project.
You will have 4 days to complete your 12 expressions, and 1 day to decorate and finish your clock.
You will first solve all the math problems in order to fill in your clock pieces.
