Time - Using a.m. and p.m. - Worksheet

This worksheet helps children grasp the concept of time, specifically focusing on the use of a.m. and p.m. to differentiate between morning and afternoon hours. The exercises involve sorting given times from earliest to latest and representing them on both analogue and digital clocks. The times provided for sorting cover full and half-hour intervals, as well as arbitrary times. Additionally, the worksheet includes practical examples like waking up in the morning or going to bed in the evening to help contextualise the concept of a.m. and p.m. for the children.

In the reasoning and problem-solving section, children are challenged to apply their understanding of a.m. and p.m. to real-life scenarios, such as determining which train Malachi could be catching based on the arrival and departure times listed for various cities. Furthermore, they are tasked with evaluating statements about sleep patterns to decide which is more plausible. This section encourages children to think critically about the 24-hour cycle and the significance of a.m. and p.m. in daily scheduling. The worksheet also includes answers to support learning and self-assessment.
