Sonic n' Tails: Timezone Travels

Practice timezones and have students figure out the times in other countries

Inspired by this time zone game https://www.altopedia.net/activities/315-time-zones

Play the powerpoint and have the students see what country they are traveling to. Once they see what time it is in Japan, see if they can calculate what time it is at their destination with the "+" or "-" numbers on the side. Hawaii is the hardest, so that one is at the end. If you don't know the country, I left the name in the notes just in case.

Safe travels
