The document discusses the history and origins of clocks. It notes that early civilizations used sundials and water clocks to tell time before mechanical clocks were invented. The earliest known clock was a sundial invented in Egypt around 4000 years ago. Over time, more accurate mechanical clocks were developed to divide the day into smaller fractions as the need to measure time more precisely increased. However, the clock has no single inventor as it evolved gradually over many centuries through the work of various civilizations.

Investigating Landforms
The document discusses how landforms on Earth's surface were created. It explains the theory of plate tectonics, which proposes that approximately 200 million years ago, the single supercontinent of Pangaea broke apart into separate continents. Continents are parts of shifting tectonic plates that have moved over time, explaining why continents separated and fit together like pieces of a puzzle. Students are then instructed to explore in groups the definition, characteristics, examples, and non-examples of landforms, and investigate how these landforms were formed on Earth's surface through the forces of plate tectonics.

A sundial uses the sun to tell time by casting a shadow from a gnomon onto a flat surface marked with hours. As the sun moves across the sky, the shadow moves across the sundial to indicate the time. Sundials have been used since ancient civilizations like Egypt, Greece, Rome, and Babylon to tell accurate time in sunny areas before mechanical clocks. They remain used around the world today.
History of the constellations
Constellations are recognizable patterns of stars in the sky that have been used for navigation and keeping track of time. Different cultures sometimes see different shapes within the same constellations. For example, Greeks saw the constellation Orion as a hunter but Japanese saw it as a drum. Constellations tell stories and help organize the night sky while also being meaningful parts of human culture.
Video Games :D
Video games are electronic games played by human interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a display device. The first commercially sold video game was Computer Space in 1971. Video games have evolved greatly over time driven by advancing gaming technology. There are different classifications of video games including casual games which have simple rules, serious games designed to convey information or learning, and educational games aimed to help students excel in certain subjects. Some popular current video games mentioned are Red Dead Redemption, Call of Duty Ghost, Battlefield 4, and Little Big Planet.
The water clock or clepsydra
Water clocks, also known as clepsydras, are ancient timekeeping devices that measured time by regulating the flow of water into or out of a container. The first water clocks consisted of a ceramic vessel with a hole at the base to allow a steady flow of water, indicating the passage of time. Later versions featured multiple containers to distinguish between day and night periods. Water clocks date back to ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome, and China, with innovations over centuries improving their design and accuracy.
History of time
Primitive methods of measuring time Prehistoric man, by simple observation of the stars, changes in the seasons, day and night began to come up with very primitive methods of measuring time. This was necessary for planning nomadic activity, farming, sacred feasts, etc. The earliest time measurement devices before clocks and watches were the sundial, hourglass and water clock.

Ancient Astronomy: A brief history of Ancient Astronomy
Ancient cultures developed astronomy as early as 5000 BC to aid with timekeeping, agriculture, navigation, and mythology. Early astronomers in Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Greece made key observations and developments, with the Babylonians establishing the earliest known constellations and calendar systems, Egyptians aligning pyramids to stars, and Greeks noting planetary motion and developing geocentric models of the universe. Astronomy provided ancient societies important practical and cultural functions by interpreting the sky.
Traditional astronomy
Ancient cultures used astronomy for agriculture, religion, and timekeeping. Calendars were based on the lunar cycles and used to track months and seasons. In Mesopotamia, calendars were recorded using cuneiform writing and depicted images from daily life. Sites like Stonehenge used the rising and setting of the sun and moon to mark the passage of time. By determining azimuths and celestial alignments at different locations, ancient people could closely track the seasons and days of the year, crucial for their civilizations. The most influential astronomical model was Ptolemy's geocentric system from the 2nd century AD, which explained planetary retrograde motion and remained the dominant view of the universe for over 1500 years.

Twentieth Century Clocks
- 1. Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.
- 2. Clock Initiation Many years ago, before there were watches, time is measured by the rotation of the Earth to observe the positions of the sun in the sky, the tides and the phases of the moon. However, the clocks were needed to measure the fractions of the day with more accuracy.
- 3. Who invented the clock? As with other inventions, the clock does not have a person, which he can point as who invented it. Rudimentary forms to time, which would become the ancestors of the watch itself, began to be used, several centuries ago by civilizations took to the stars, as reference time.
- 4. The First Clock 4000 years ago in Egypt, invented the first watch and was precisely the Sundial, only that it could not measure the time when it was night and there was no sun. This watch is based on the direction of the shadow cast by an element of wood, stone or other. Egyptians also created a watch which was based on the running water.
- 5. Clock Causes Since ancient times men saw the need to measure time. To do so is fixed first in the sun and it sticks were used, columns or obelisks called by the Greeks "gnomon". It was elements to influence the ray shadow cast on them varying length, or curved intersecting markings marked on the floor. Nowadays we can not imagine life without a watch that indicates the time.
