Time and Children's Literature

The following books deal with time and other aspects of measurement, as these can be found in the same books.  Time falls under the measurement category in the Atlantic Canada curriculum guide .  I have therefore listed all of the measurement focals that can be found in the texts.

Teddy Bears go Shopping - Time, money, mass and volume

Happy Birthday Sam - size - height, time - age

The Very Busy Spider - Size and time

Phoebe and the Hot Water Bottles - Time -years, volume and capacity

A Day on the Avenue - Time - day

The Twelve Days of Christmas - measuring squares, time - calendar

All in a Day - Time - seasons, clock
