Telling Time: A Real-World Activity Book [74 pages]

Not knowing how to read a clock is frustrating for your child AND for you.

The practical skill of Telling Time will give your child a sense of control and autonomy--and more confidence to navigate the changing world around them. 

As they make their way through the Telling Time Activity Workbook, your child will master the many skills of reading a clock, in a way that feels easy and fun. 

The clear, step-by-step format helps kids truly master each step so they avoid confusion later, and feel confident even with tricky times and clock faces. 

Your child will learn to confidently: 

• know the difference between the hour and minute hand
  
• read and write digital times
  
• understand AM and PM
• accurately identify the hour (not just at "o'clock")
  
• tell time to hour and half hour
  
• skip count by 5s, 15s, and half hours around the clock
• tell time to the nearest 5 minutes
• quickly identify the quarter hours (:00, :15, :30, and :45 minutes)
• understand language "half past", "a quarter past", "a quarter till"
• tell time to the minute
  
• read a variety of real-world clock faces 
  
• tell time on clocks with missing numbers or Roman numerals

Younger children can stop at any point that begins to feel difficult, and can pick up the more advanced lessons a little later. 

Older kids should start at the beginning. They may work through the first lessons quickly, and that's fine, but it will form the foundation for more advanced skills.
