Teaching to Tell Time...Learn to Read Online Curriculum BONUS!


Okay, for any of you that still have kiddos that need to learn to tell time (the old fashioned way) LOL…darn those digital clocks! We found a great little tool on a site that I love (apples4theteacher) yesterday and my kids that I have used multiple strategies with on this finally got it!  We have tried story books, workbooks, a manual clock, etc. to not really getting it. This just really helped with them doing it over and over until they got it.  I helped them count the minutes by 5’s until they were able to do themselves, which they were doing fine after a few runs of it.  Now they are doing it each day for practice just so they will eventually be able to “know” by memory and not having to count by 5’s.  They really took to it.  Hope you all can use this!

Thanks for the leaving the post. My son wasn't getting how a clock worked. But we followed the link and played the game. It's so encouraging that you can find good resources like this and learn to read online. He's got it down now. Just ask him, and he'll give you a very cute, "free-o-clock." :)
