Definition: An instrument used to measure or keep track of time; a non-portable timepiece.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look, At the word “clock,” a curious book! The dictionary tells us, clear and bright, It's more than just a thing you might sight. “An instrument used to measure time with glee,” That’s one part of what “clock” can be! It helps us know if lunchtime’s near, you see, And when it's time for learning, happily! "A non-portable timepiece," that’s the other clue, Means it stays in place, loyal and true. Unlike your watch upon your wrist so neat, A clock sits steady, a rhythmic treat! Think of grandfather clocks, tall and grand, Or kitchen clocks, close at hand. They all keep track with tick and tock, Showing us moments as they flock! So remember now, dear students bright, A ‘clock’ measures time with all its might. Do you have any questions for me?
