Max Maths, Year 4, Work Book, Review of reading the time

In the Max Maths Year 4 Workbook, students are given a practical review of telling time, a key skill for their age group. The first practice exercise focuses on reading and representing times both on an analogue clock and a digital display. Students are tasked with reading various times, such as 'half past four' and 'quarter to eleven', and then drawing the corresponding hour and minute hands on blank clock faces to visually represent these times. Additionally, they must transcribe these times into numerical format on digital clock illustrations provided in the workbook. This exercise helps to reinforce their understanding of the relationship between analogue and digital time representations.

The second exercise further develops the students' ability to read analogue clocks by asking them to write down the time shown on each clock face, both in numerical format on a digital clock and in words, ensuring they can express time in different formats. Finally, the third exercise presents a matching activity where students connect specific times to letters, ultimately revealing a favourite time related to a character named Toby. This playful approach to learning time combines reading comprehension with the practical application of telling time, offering a comprehensive review of this essential skill.
