Tips for Parents & Teachers
Keep an analog clock visible in your home. Digital clocks are convenient, but analog clocks make the passage of time visual.
Refer to the clock throughout the day: "Look, the hour hand is on the 3 — it is 3 o'clock, time for a snack!"
Let your child set a timer for activities: "We will play for 30 minutes. What time will we stop?"
Be patient — telling time is abstract. The idea that 2:30 is "between" 2:00 and 3:00 takes practice to internalize.
