3rd grade: History of the World - #1c creation and the beginning of time

God Moved

When God moves his law is applied to all things. His law defined time. When he moved he started time. This was the beginning of History.

God moved, resonance, and when he moved, with his plan and law, and started time so many things happened!


BBC Skillswise has nice lessons, games and worksheets on time:


12-hour and 24-hour time
  • am is morning time (all times between 12 midnight and
    12 midday).
  • pm is afternoon and evening time (all times between 12
    midday and 12 midnight).
  • This is an analogue or a 12-hour clock. An analogue clock
    is one with a face and hands. It is showing the time
    twenty past five.
    Analogue or 12 hour clock
    If it were twenty past five in the morning, it would
    be written as 5:20 am.
    If it were twenty past five in the afternoon, it would
    be written as 5:20 pm.
  • These are digital or 24-hour clocks. They are also
    showing the times twenty past five.
    Digital or 24 hour clocks
  • The 24-hour time is the same as the analogue time in the
    morning (except for the 0 at the beginning for numbers
    under 10). So 8:45 am becomes 08:45.
  • But in the afternoon, you need to add 12 to convert an
    analogue time to a 24-hour time. So 8.45 pm
    becomes 20.45.
  • Midday on a 24-hour clock is shown as 12:00.
  • Midnight on a 24-hour clock is shown as 00:00.
Units of time
  • 1 minute = 60 seconds
  • 1 hour = 60 minutes
  • 1 day = 24 hours
  • 1 week = 7 days
  • 1 fortnight = 14 days
  • 1 year = 12 months = 52 weeks = 365 days
  • 1 leap year = 366 days
  • Remember "30 days has September, April, June and
    November. All the rest have 31. Except for February
    alone, which has 28 days clear but 29 each leap year."

Genesis 1

1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
