Max Maths, Year 3, Work Book, Review of reading the time

In the "Max Maths" workbook for Year 3, there is a section dedicated to reviewing the skill of reading time on an analogue clock. Practice 1 begins with an exercise where students must observe the position of the clock hands and complete sentences to indicate the time. They are prompted to identify where the hour and minute hands are pointing and then write the corresponding time in terms such as 'o'clock'. This task is designed to reinforce their understanding of the hour and minute hands and how they relate to telling time.

The second activity requires students to calculate the passage of time by observing changes in the clock's hands between two points. They must write down the number of minutes that have elapsed. This exercise helps to develop their skills in calculating intervals of time. In the third activity, the workbook provides clocks with an orange-coloured segment indicating the passage of time. Students need to fill in the blanks with the number of minutes that have passed and the current time. This activity is designed to further enhance their ability to read and understand time increments on an analogue clock face, a fundamental skill in everyday life.
