Week 5 Time (Please label any worksheets week 5 and add to your folder).

 

This week’s maths activities will be mostly practical (As most things are in Reception). 

 

I have attached a clock template which you could print off to use whilst playing games, or highlighting the time of the day.

Online clock to demonstrate different hours of the day.  https://www.topmarks.co.uk/time/teaching-clock  Only focus on o’clock, the children do not yet need to know quarter past and half past.  (If you press reset, you can change the time hourly).
