• Measuring length in whole inches using a ruler aligned at zero
• The inverse relationship between unit size and the count produced when measuring the same length
• Estimating length in whole-unit increments prior to measuring
• Comparing two measured lengths and determining their difference
• Using a number line model to add and subtract whole-number lengths
• One-step addition/subtraction word problems set in a length context
• Telling time to the nearest five minutes with a.m./p.m. distinction
• Reading whole-hour times on an analog clock (short hand on the number, long hand on 12)
• Elapsed time reasoning with an unfamiliar story context
• Ordering times using a.m./p.m. labels within a daily routine
• The general principle that smaller measuring units always produce larger counts for the same length, applied to unfamiliar units

Every lesson is written for a parent with no teaching background: it opens with a short script to read aloud, names the specific wrong idea a student is likely to reach for and how to correct it, and closes with a practice sheet you may copy for your household. Scripture references are King James Version throughout. Black-and-white, 8.5 x 11 in. The whole year of this course is also in this store as a single book.
