The Time Race

Rob the Rabbit lives in a faraway land where he is the fastest animal around. He’s always bragging about how great he is, and some of the other animals get annoyed because Rob doesn’t notice they have special skills, too.

Old and wise Mr. Turtle in particular does not appreciate Rob’s quickness, so to teach the turtle a lesson, Rob challenges him to a race. Surprisingly, Mr. Turtle agrees, and although Rob thinks he’s easily going to win, Mr. Turtle knows better. On a special circular track, Mr. Turtle does the race backwards … and they tie, but how?

Rather than teach elementary students how to read a clock, many schools are removing clocks from the classroom. By combining literature and math, let Rob the Rabbit and Mr. Turtle show you how to read an analog clock!
