AM/PM vs 24 Hour Clock
A Typical Day
This is how my friend spends his day:
- He wakes up early in the morning, gets dressed, and has breakfast
- then he goes to school
- in the middle of the day he has lunch
- in the afternoon he comes home from school
- then he does homework and has some time to play
- then just as the sun goes down he has his evening meal
- then he might watch TV or play on the computer
- and then he goes to sleep
What is a Day
A day is how long it takes for the Earth to make a complete rotation on its axis
Days Have Names
There are seven different days:
- Monday
- Tuesday
- Wednesday
- Thursday
- Friday
- Saturday
- Sunday
7 days together make a Week.
