Clock

Math

• The child learned how to tell time using an analog clock.
• They practiced identifying the hour and minute hands on the clock.
• They learned how to read and write time in both digital and analog formats.
• The child learned how to calculate elapsed time by determining the difference between two given times.

Continued development can be encouraged by providing the child with various clocks to practice with, such as a digital clock, a wall clock, or even an interactive clock app on a tablet or smartphone. Engaging the child in real-life scenarios where they have to read the time, such as planning a schedule or setting timers, can also help reinforce their understanding of clock concepts.
