Time

Dear Parents/Caregivers,

My name is Laura O’Neill and I am a Pre -service Teacher from Edith Cowan University doing my six week practicum in wonderful Room 16.

Over the last five weeks in Mathematics, our class has been focusing on telling the time. The Year Two students have an excellent understanding of telling the time using o’clock and half past. We have also been looking at telling the time to the quarter hour and 5 minute intervals. As this is a very tricky concept we would love your support at home to reinforce time telling!

A great way of practising time at home is by asking your child to read an analogue clock at different times of the day. There are also many fantastic online time resources students can use such as the game in the link below:

With lots of practice, I am confident Room 16’s time telling skills will continue improve!
