We have been learning about time in Maths. Games like bingo and Stop the Clock during stations are helping us to become more confident reading the time. This is a tricky area so please practise as often as possible at home!
Remember...
  • The minute hand points to 12 to show 'o'clock.'
  • There are 60 minutes in an hour.

  • The minute hand points to 6 to show 'half past.'
  • There are 30 minutes in half an hour.
  • The minute hand has travelled halfway around the clock. It is 30 minutes PAST the last hour.

  • The minute hand points to 3 to show a quarter past. 
  • There are fifteen minutes in a quarter of an hour.
  • The minute hand has travelled a quarter way around the clock. It is fifteen minutes PAST the last hour.

The minute hand points to 9 to show a quarter to. 
It only has to travel another quarter way around the clock before it gets TO the next hour.
The digital clock never look ahead TO the next hour. The digital clock is still counting how many minutes have passed since the last hour. 
A quarter to 9 = 8:45
