Telling the Time

This week, children in 3C have been learning to read clocks on the hour, half hour, quarter to and quarter past. Some children are even reading time in one minute intervals which is super!



















 
First, we looked at the different parts of a clock and we played games which helped us to remember how to convert units of time from 60 seconds into 1 minute, 60minutes = 1 hour, 24hours = 1 day.

Next week, we will begin to compare analogue time and digital time. We will also look at the duration of events as well as the number of days in a month and the order of months in a year.
