Telling time

English Language Arts

• The child has learned how to read analog clocks and tell time accurately.
• They have learned the vocabulary associated with telling time, such as "o'clock," "half past," and "quarter to."
• The child can now write time using both digital and analog formats.
• They have improved their reading comprehension skills through reading time-related texts and questions.

For continued development, encourage the child to practice telling time in real-life situations. Have them read the time on different clocks around the house, set alarms and timers, and even create their own daily schedule. They can also practice writing time by creating their own analog clocks and labeling the hour and minute hands correctly.
