    About Telling Time - Analogue & Digital Practice

    Children read clock faces and digital times, matching or choosing the correct time. Levels grow from o’clock and half past toward finer minute reading.

    Skills Practised

    • Analogue clock reading
    • Digital time
    • Quarter and half hours
    • Elapsed-time awareness

    How to Play

    Choose Easy / Medium / Hard, look at the clock or time shown, and tap the matching answer.

    Top Tip

    The short hand is hours, the long hand is minutes — check the short hand first.

    In the real world

    Doctors’ appointments, train timetables, TV guides and recipes all depend on reading time. This game is rehearsal for independence.

    Why This Matters at School

    Time sense underpins school schedules, cooking, sport and catching buses — a life skill as much as a maths strand.

    Who Should Play This?

    Ages 5–10.

    Tips for Parents and Teachers

    • Point at a wall clock at home and ask “what time is it?” twice a day.
    • Use a real analogue clock while they play.

    Common Difficulties

    Confusing the hands — cover the minute hand briefly and read the hour first.
