Here's an interesting children's record talking about all aspects of time. It starts simply talking about the minute hand and the hour hand of the clock, then getting into days of the week and months of the year. By the time it's all said and done, they even get into Greenwich Mean Time and the International Date Line! Pretty heady stuff for a kid's record, don't you think?

If words are power, then according to Peter Johnston’s Choice Words,
teachers’ words are a super power. Using a variety of interspersed
narratives from various classrooms, narratives that include
student-teacher dialogue, Johnston shows how the words that teachers
use express a variety of both conscious and subconscious opinions of
students. And, as I think everyone agrees, what teachers think about
their students has significant implications on the opportunities and
achievements of those students. But Johnston does not stop there. While
Johnston includes what he would call both positive and negative
interactions, he does not judge the teacher as being bad solely on the
basis of the interaction. The teacher may not realize the hidden
suggestions his or her words possess; similarly the teacher whose
dialogue is "good" may not be expressly trying to suggest something
positive to the students. Some teachers are just naturals when it comes
to this.
