Imagine that a giant needed a really large ruler so that he could measure the big things in his world. This ruler represents one inch on the Giant’s Ruler. To make the ruler, fold down on the top line creating a long flap with the ruler marks on one side. The words "Giant’s Ruler" will now be on the back of the paper. Draw a line under the bottom edge of the ruler. You should have about 6 inches of space on the paper below the line. Under each mark on the ruler, write the size of the fractional part. For example, 1/16, 1/8, 3/16, etc. You’ll notice that some fractions can be written in more than one way (2/16 = 1/8).
Color the hands of the clock. Cut out the hands and clock face. Use a paper fastener to attach the hands to the face. Make sure the hands turn freely. Then glue the clock face onto a paper plate.
