Telling the time is tricky! In 3rd class the girls learn to tell the time in 5 minute intervals using both the digital and analogue clocks. They will also learn to:
• Tell the time on analogue and digital clocks, using 5 minute intervals
• Calculate the time elapsed/duration between two given times
• Given a time, figure out what the time would be _ minutes earlier or later.
Here are some online games that you may find helpful for practising this topic:

These websites have been tried and tested for suitability and are great fun for all the family! But as always please monitor your daughter carefully while using the Internet .
The best way for your daughter to learn how to tell the time is by using it. Draw reference to the time throughout the day and ask her questions about it. Ask what time will it be in 1 hour/2 hours etc.
Here is a template to make a clock at home to help:
Have a great TIME trying them out!
