Original Prompt

I am wanting to plan stations regarding the 24 hour clock and time zones with a thematic unit that is themed travel. Create 4 different stations that can teach the students this in a fun way

This resource engages learners in understanding how we measure and track time across the globe. It includes activities that teach the 24-hour clock system, conversions between 12-hour and 24-hour formats, and the significance of time zones as one travels east or west around the world. Students will partake in various stations that involve practical applications such as converting flight times, scheduling international calls, planning itineraries, tracking the International Space Station, and more, enabling a hands-on approach to learning about global time differences and their real-world implications.
