Measurement - Time

About This Worksheet

This worksheet provides a valuable opportunity for Year 2 students to consolidate their understanding of time, a fundamental skill that underpins many aspects of daily life. By working through these exercises, children develop their ability to accurately read and interpret analogue clocks, a crucial skill for time management and organization. The ability to tell time accurately also supports the development of sequencing skills, as children learn to understand the order of events and the duration of activities. Furthermore, this worksheet reinforces mathematical vocabulary related to time, such as 'o'clock,' 'half past,' 'quarter past,' and 'quarter to,' enhancing their overall mathematical literacy. The practical application of telling time helps children connect abstract mathematical concepts to real-world scenarios, making learning more engaging and meaningful. Mastering these skills at a young age builds a strong foundation for more advanced time-related concepts in later years, such as calculating elapsed time and understanding timetables. Ultimately, this worksheet empowers children to become more independent and responsible in managing their time and planning their activities.

💡 How to Use This Worksheet

This worksheet is designed to reinforce Year 2 students' understanding of telling time to five-minute intervals. Begin by reviewing the concepts of o'clock, half past, quarter past, and quarter to. Use a demonstration clock to physically show the movement of the hands and relate it to the written time. Encourage students to verbalize the time as they work through each question. For students who struggle, provide additional support by breaking down each question into smaller steps and using visual aids. For students who excel, challenge them to create their own time-related problems or to convert between analogue and digital time.
