Day

In the study of time, a day is a unit of time generally defined as the period of time during which the Earth completes one rotation on its axis. This rotation takes approximately 24 hours. The concept of a day is fundamental to our understanding of time and is used in various aspects of everyday life and in many fields of study, including mathematics and science.

Measuring a Day

The length of a day is determined by the time it takes for a specific point on the Earth's surface to rotate from the "noon" position, around the Earth, and back to the same position. This period is approximately 24 hours, giving us the familiar 24-hour day and night cycle.

Divisions of a Day

A day is commonly divided into smaller units, such as hours, minutes, and seconds. These divisions allow for more precise measurement and tracking of time throughout the day.

The resources above cover the following skills:

Number and Operations (NCTM)

Understand numbers, ways of representing numbers, relationships among numbers, and number systems.

Develop a sense of whole numbers and represent and use them in flexible ways, including relating, composing, and decomposing numbers.

Connect number words and numerals to the quantities they represent, using various physical models and representations.

Compute fluently and make reasonable estimates.

Develop and use strategies for whole-number computations, with a focus on addition and subtraction.

Develop fluency with basic number combinations for addition and subtraction.

Algebra (NCTM)

Use mathematical models to represent and understand quantitative relationships.

Model situations that involve the addition and subtraction of whole numbers, using objects, pictures, and symbols.

Grade 2 Curriculum Focal Points (NCTM)

Number and Operations and Algebra: Developing quick recall of addition facts and related subtraction facts and fluency with multi-digit addition and subtraction

Children use their understanding of addition to develop quick recall of basic addition facts and related subtraction facts. They solve arithmetic problems by applying their understanding of models of addition and subtraction (such as combining or separating sets or using number lines), relationships and properties of number (such as place value), and properties of addition (commutativity and associativity). Children develop, discuss, and use efficient, accurate, and generalizable methods to add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers. They select and apply appropriate methods to estimate sums and differences or calculate them mentally, depending on the context and numbers involved. They develop fluency with efficient procedures, including standard algorithms, for adding and subtracting whole numbers, understand why the procedures work (on the basis of place value and properties of operations), and use them to solve problems.
