What Time Is It? (contains 61 worksheets)
What Time Is It is a very comprehensive descriptive handbook to teach reading and telling the time on both, the digital and analogue clock. Progressively organised tasks, that are represented in a
step to step sequence of difficulty, lead students to master the basic concepts and skills of telling time on either clock.
The activities encourage the student to look at the position of the hands, especially the big hand, at a start of an activity, then take notice of the position of the hand at the end of the activity, and count
in fives the minutes between the two positions, finding the minutes past (how long did the activity take). The student will grasp the concept of duration, the time lapsed or time ahead.
The students learn to relate time on an analogue clock to time on a digital clock.
Half past 3 to 3 : 30, quarter past 7 to 7 : 15, a quarter to 6 to 5 : 45 etc.
15 worksheets are allocated to applications to real life situations and to problem solving.
