Max Maths, Year 5, Work Book, Time review

In the 'Max Maths, Year 5, Work Book', students are given the opportunity to review and practice their understanding of time. The first practice activity requires students to read various times and then illustrate these on blank clock faces using a ruler to draw the hour and minute hands accurately. Examples provided include 'Seven o’clock', 'Quarter past nine', 'Six twenty-seven', and 'Half past ten'. This exercise helps students visualise the positions of the hands for different times throughout the day.

The workbook then challenges students to interpret the time displayed on a series of clock faces. They must write down the time in both numerical format and in words, enhancing their ability to communicate time in different forms. Further exercises include completing a chart that covers basic time conversions such as minutes to seconds, hours to minutes, days to hours, weeks to days, and days in a year. Additionally, there are activities focused on converting times to seconds, and then to minutes and seconds, providing practical application of their conversion skills. These tasks not only reinforce the students' understanding of time but also integrate mathematical operations such as multiplication and division within a real-world context.
