Hello, little friends! Are you ready for a fun adventure with some animal friends and a big clock? Let’s go!
Once upon a time, a tiny mouse wanted to climb a big clock. The clock went “DING!” when it struck one, and the mouse quickly went back down. What a brave little mouse!
Next, a big bear decided to climb the clock. When the clock struck two, it went “DING DING!” and the bear came down. Good job, bear!
Then, a colorful parrot flew up to the clock. The parrot was very curious and wanted to see what would happen next. What a clever parrot!
After that, a playful monkey climbed up the clock. When the clock struck four, it went “DING DING DING DING!” and the monkey came back down. What a fun climb, monkey!
A cute pig wanted to try too! The pig went up the clock, and when it struck five, it went “DING DING DING DING DING!” The pig hurried down. Well done, pig!
Finally, a big elephant decided to climb the clock. When the clock struck six, it went “DING DING DING DING DING DING!” and the elephant carefully came down. Great job, elephant!
Wasn’t that a fun adventure? We learned that clocks make a sound called “DING” when they strike a number. Each number means a different time. Can you count how many times the clock goes “DING” for each number?
Thanks for joining our clock adventure! See you next time!
Animal Clock Dance: Let’s pretend to be the animals from the story! Choose an animal and act out its adventure with the clock. When the clock strikes a number, make the same number of “DING” sounds and move like your chosen animal. Can you remember how each animal moved when the clock struck their number?
Make Your Own Clock: Create a simple clock using a paper plate and some craft materials. Draw numbers from 1 to 12 around the edge. Use a paper fastener to attach two paper arrows for the clock hands. Practice moving the hands to different numbers and say “DING” the correct number of times. Can you show what time it is when the clock strikes three?
Counting Dings Game: Listen carefully as someone claps or taps a drum to make “DING” sounds. Count how many “DINGs” you hear and match it to the correct number on your clock. Can you guess which animal would climb the clock for that number of “DINGs”?
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
