This freebie is designed to help you supplement teaching time at home. This printable focuses on both digital and analog clocks and telling time to the hour, half hour, quarter after and quarter to. Also, explore 24-hour formats, AM , PM, minutes to & minutes past. Here are some of the games we play

“What Time is it?” – Write the digital time and draw the analog clock hands.

Use the 12- hour format first. Start with easy times – eg: 1:00, 2:00, 3:00,4:00 progressing to 12:00

Start advancing by 15 minutes. So eg: 1:00, 1:15, 1:30, 1:45 progressing to 2:00

Start advancing by 5 minutes. So eg: 1:00, 1:05, 1:10, 1:15 progressing to 2:00

Our What's the time clock free printable is easy to use and very flexible. Print, laminate & use a marker to practice time problems for grade 3 to grade 5

Explore times that have both small hands and big hands at the same number – eg: 1:05 , 2:10, 3:15, 4:20.

For older kids, practice the detailed minute hand movements – eg 12:56, 7:09

Explore the difference between times 1:50 & 10:10
