Telling Time

My class is currently working on telling time to the hour, half hour, fifteen minute interval and five minute interval in math.  We always need lots of different ways to practice a skill.  Below are a few of the resources we're using in addition to the materials that came with the unit in our district's math series:

Touch Math Time  (I looked for this on google.  It used to be part of the Upper Grades set, but I can't find it anymore.  I really like it because it's visuals are clean and simple with a lot of white space.  It also integrates time before and time after within each interval.)

Clocks from two paper plates from E Is for Explore



Simple morning work worksheets from Math Fact Cafe.  This site has a worksheet generator that shuffles the problems and you can also set the parameters for what skills you want on the worksheet.  Love that!  Again, the visuals are clean and there's a lot of white space so it's not really busy and overwhelming.

I also have quite a few file folder games that I have made and collected over the years.  Those are coming out too.

This is a great way to have students practice telling time on their own. Often times with my learning support students I have them write the amount of minute by each number, but then they aren't memorizing it. In the case with your paper plate, they would have the opportunity to guess the amount of minutes then check themselves. Thank you for posting this. I look forward to creating some for my classroom!

Thank you so much for posting this! We have been working on time and my students are struggling with this! I have been looking for a way to explain to my students that 5:00 is not 5:60. Do you have any advice for that?
