Teach students how to read the exact time on an analogue clock by focusing on hour and minute accuracy, rather than time phrases like past and to. These slides guide students step-by-step to identify the hour hand and count individual minute marks to determine the precise digital time.
Students learn to track which number the hour hand has just passed and then count the minute marks to find the exact number of minutes. This builds a strong understanding of how analogue clocks connect to digital time (e.g. 1:12, 5:39).
The clear teaching sequence, visual supports and gradual progression help students move from counting in 5s to confidently reading time to the minute.
