About this activity
What your child practises

Reading analogue clocks and linking the position of the hands to times of the day.
What’s included
- 8 questions
- An answer key you can print with the sheet or on its own

Age and school year
Made for ages 7–10. That’s Grade 2–5 in the US, Year 3–6 in England, Primary 2–5 in Nigeria and Class 2–5 in India.
How to use it
- Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
- Print the answer key too, so marking takes seconds.
- Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
- Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.
Tips for parents and teachers
- Count real things first – spoons, socks, toy cars – then move to the pictures, so numbers stay meaningful.
- Ask “How do you know?” about one answer. Explaining a method builds understanding faster than speed.
- Use the on-screen version for instant feedback when your child is working alone.
