Learning objectives/outcomes: England:NNS Measures, shape and space 79: Y2: Read the time to the hour, half hour or quarter hour on an analogue clock and a digital clock and understand the notation 7:30. Y3: Read the time to 5 minutes on an analogue clock and a 12-hour digital clock, and use the notation 9:40. NC KS1: Understanding Measures b) understand angle as a measure of turn using whole turnsx, half-turns and quarter-turns
KS2: Understanding Measures d) Read the time from analogue and digital 12- and 24-hour clocks; use units of time - seconds, minutes, hours... and know the relationship between them. Northern Ireland: Key Stage 1
Processes:
- select the materials and mathematics appropriate for a task
- develop different approaches to problem solving
- understand mathematical language and be able to use it to talk about their work
- explain their way of working
Measures:
- recognise times on the analogue clocks and digital displays
Key Stage 2
Processes:
- take increasing responsibility for selecting and using the materials and the mathematics required for their work
- understand mathematical language and use it to discuss their work and explain their thinking
Measures:
- recognise times on the analogue and digital clocks and understand the relationship between the 12 and 24 hour clocks Scotland: Time: Level A: Work with Time - Tell the time in whole hours using a digital and analogue displays. Level B: Work with Time - Tell time using analogue and digital displays and understand the terms quarter past/to, half past.

SEN information
Suitable for children with Moderate and Specific Learning Difficulties, including children with Dyscalculia. This activity allows lots of consolidation, reinforcement and practice in the use of digital and analogue time. Text is read for children, which should ensure the activity can be undertaken by children who are not confident readers or who have difficulties with reading, thereby giving all children the opportunity to succeed at the activity and also gain a sense of independence.
