Telling Time: Match Clock, Digits, and Words

Name:                              
Date:              

Today I am practising: linking analog clocks, digital notation, and time language

1

Match an analog 5:00 clock to 5:00.

2

Match 8:30 to the words half past eight.

3

Write the words for 12:00.

4

Draw a clock to complete the pair 3:30 and half past three.

5

Find one mismatched clock/digital pair and fix it.

6

Read one complete three-part match to an adult.

Grown-up guide
  1. Read each word phrase aloud before asking the child to match it.
  2. Let the child use a paper strip to cover two columns while focusing on one pair.
  3. Ask them to point to the same hour in every representation as a final check.
