Upon request of the students, here is the "clock" we made in class; each stack of blocks has 5 blocks to represent the 5 minutes between each number on a clock; the numbers on the clock show the number of stacks (or groups of 5) we put on the board. After we made the clock and practiced counting to the minute, we made a number line in the same way to show how the two are related!
For visual learners, this sure seemed to click (plus, no one ever turns down a chance to play with blocks...) :)
