Time - Analogue to Digital 12 hour- Worksheet
Maths Resource Description
The worksheet titled "Analogue to Digital – 12 hour" is a comprehensive resource designed to help children grasp the concept of converting analogue time to digital format within a 12-hour clock system. The exercises encourage students to practice writing times using a.m. and p.m. to differentiate between morning and afternoon. It emphasizes the importance of representing digital time in a four-digit format, such as 09:30 a.m. instead of 9:30. Students work with familiar time phrases like 'o'clock', 'half past', 'quarter to', and 'quarter past', and are challenged to convert these into digital times. Additionally, the worksheet provides activities where children calculate the digital time after a certain number of minutes have passed or determine what the time would be a specific number of minutes earlier.
In the "Fluency & Precision" section, learners are tasked with writing the digital time for given analogue times and associating these times with potential activities, such as kayaking at 06:30 p.m. or canoeing at 07:00 a.m. This section also includes exercises where students must add or subtract minutes from a given time and write the new time in digital format. The "Reasoning & Problem Solving" section presents real-life scenarios, such as Malachi arriving at an activity centre and determining which activities he can attend based on their starting times. This part of the worksheet also includes a problem where a student, Esin, incorrectly converts an analogue time to digital, and learners must identify the mistake and provide the correct digital time, reinforcing their understanding of the 12-hour clock format.
