Teaching kids to tell time past the hour

February 7 By Linda Kamp 92 Comments

Teaching kids to tell time past the hour can be challenging but it doesn’t have to be a struggle for you or your students. Learn simple ways you can make telling time so much easier for your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders that make telling time more concrete and fun! These teaching ideas and FREE telling time games and activities are ideal for teachers and homeschool parents of first, second and third graders.

Teaching primary kids to tell time past the hour can be a challenge but it doesn’t have to be a struggle for you or your students. In this post I’ll share with you some easy tips and simple strategies you can use as you teach your class to tell time. I should also mention they are hands-on, concrete, and FUN! Be sure to download all of the FREE resources at the end of this post so your students can practice these simple strategies that really do work!

Make Telling Time Concrete.

Telling time is one of the more abstract concepts we teach during our math instruction. When reading a clock it can be difficult for some students to make the leap in thinking to one is five, two is ten, three is fifteen and so on. Telling time past the hour can prove to be an even bigger challenge for some. Many students get thrown for a loop when the hour hand falls between two numbers. Is it 5:30 or 6:30? 11:30 or 12:30?

Teaching kids to tell time past the hour can be challenging but it doesn’t have to be a struggle for you or your students. These classroom-tested tips and FREE telling time activities and for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students make learning to tell time more concrete and fun. Hands-on telling time teaching ideas and games for teachers of first, second and third graders.

Believe it or not, using manipulatives like connecting cubes and pipe cleaners can make telling time much easier for kids. These along with practice clocks help students to visualize the hour space, identify the correct hour when the hand falls between two numbers, and to manipulate models that represent time.

Explicitly Teach the Hour Space.

Once students understand the purposes of the minute and hour hands and the direction they move, introduce the hour space. I teach this strategy early on when introducing time as it’s important for students to understand “who owns the space” between the numbers on a clock. Get your kids up and moving by having them use their bodies to create hour spaces. This makes it easy to see “who owns the space”. Explain to your students that when the hour hand is in that space we say, “_____ (however many) minutes after ___ (that hour).”

Try this with your class:

Have groups of 12 students form a circle. Place a sticky note on each child’s shirt with a number in order from 1-12. Tell your students that each of them represents the hour on the clock that is written on their sticky note. Have students place their right arm down at their side and their left arm outstretched placing their hand on their neighbor’s shoulder.  Help your students to see that just like on a clock the space their arm fills belongs to the hour on their shirt.

These classroom-tested tips and FREE telling time activities and for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students make learning to tell time more concrete and fun. Hands-on telling time teaching ideas and games for teachers of first, second and third graders.

Practice this concept further by having students place connecting cubes on a clock face to show “who owns the space”. Give each child a blank clock face or use the page from the game below. Call out hours and ask students to place a cube in the space that belongs to the hour you called.

Break out those highlighters that every kid loves! Assess your students or give additional practice by having them read and identify which space belongs to the hour by coloring it.

Do you have connecting doors in your classroom? If so, this is another way that I’ve taught this concept: Compare the spaces between the numbers on a clock to the doors connecting the classrooms in your hallway. Have your students imagine that each number on the clock is a door. Walking clockwise, each door (number) they pass through takes them into a new room. For example, when they pass the number two, they just entered two’s room. The hour hand is in two’s room until it touches three. Once they pass (or open the door to) three they are in three’s room and so on.

Make a Hook to Determine the Correct Hour.

When teaching kids to tell time past the hour determining the correct hour can be where the struggle comes in. Many children get confused about the hour when reading the time on an analog clock. Especially when the hour hand falls between two numbers. Yikes.

Here’s how to solve that problem: Have your students “make a hook”.

These classroom-tested tips and FREE telling time activities and for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students make learning to tell time more concrete and fun. Hands-on telling time teaching ideas and games for teachers of first, second and third graders.

Start with the concrete by making a manipulative with a pipe cleaner. Cut each one in half or in quarters depending on the size of your practice clocks. Gently bend the pieces to form a hook that looks like a backward J. I do this ahead of time to make sure they are the right size. Place the straight end on the hour hand. The hook then points to the correct hour that the minutes have passed. This is such a simple, but effective trick for helping students learn to determine the correct hour. As students gain mastery they can then begin to use their index finger to trace an imaginary hook starting on the hour hand and stopping on the number just before it.

How do you make sure students use the hook in the right direction?

I get asked this question a lot. To make sure students are using the hook correctly I teach them this first:

Have your students use their left hand to make an L by pointing their index finger up and their thumb out. Then have them curve their thumb a bit to look like a hook, or a backward J.

These classroom-tested tips and FREE telling time activities and for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students make learning to tell time more concrete and fun. Hands-on telling time teaching ideas and games for teachers of first, second and third graders.

This way if students forget which direction the hook should be facing they can “make an L and curve it up”. This gives a visual reminder and most kids learn to make an L with their left hand in Kindergarten as they are learning left and right. I’ve used this strategy for years and so far, I haven’t had issues with them using the wrong hand.

If you’d like to try this with your class I’ve made a simple game that you can add to your math centers for students to practice the strategy. Just add hooks by cutting a pipe cleaner into 4 pieces and gently bending them around your finger.

Practice More by Making It Fun!

Telling time can be hard for a lot of students but it gets easier if you make it fun! One of the most fun things I’ve ever done with my class, is to tie it to the song, “What Does the Fox Say?” and change the words to “What Does the Clock Say?” My class LOVED it! Get your kids up and moving with the adorable video in this post and have them practice their new strategies using fox clocks! You can grab another free math game while you’re there too!

Fun Ways to Teach Telling Time-These hands-on ideas and telling time activities for first, second, and even third graders make telling time fun! Students play a variation on “I Have, Who Has?” centered around a popular song and telling time anchor chart. Ideal for teaching 1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders to tell time to the hour/half hour, quarter hour and to the minute. This post also includes a FREE telling time game for kids!

Teaching kids to tell time past the hour doesn’t have to be a struggle. Try these simple tricks to make time more concrete, to get your class up and moving, and to make learning to tell time fun! Not teaching time yet? Be sure to pin these ideas and resources for later!

      Hi, I think this idea is cute but how do you prevent them from drawing or putting the hook the wrong way thus “hooking” the wrong hour number?

        Hi Cheryl!
        I begin by teaching the hour space first. The hooks are a second strategy that students can use. It’s important that you teach students the direction the hook is used (like a backward J). To reinforce this, I have everyone hold up their left hand and make a hook with their index finger and thumb so they can see the direction the hook is used. I then teach them to place the long end of the pipe cleaner hook on the hour hand with the curve going back the same direction as the hook they made with their finger and thumb on their left hand. This way the hook points to the correct hour.

        Try it out with the games in the post after teaching these steps. It’s been really helpful to my students. I hope this helps, and thanks so much for asking!

        I love this idea! I plan on using the colored space idea, but I’m confused about the hook. At 4:02, wouldn’t the hook look like it’s “hooking” the space above the 4? Does this confuse your students?

        • Linda says

          April 22 at 5:59 pm

          Hi Caril,
          At 4:02 the hour hand is still on or very close to the four making it easier for students to determine the hour. The hook strategy is a helpful one to use when the hour hand falls between two numbers. I hope this helps and your students enjoy the games!

        Linda, there is a form in the post for you to put your email address in. Then the games will be automatically sent to your inbox. I recommend using a personal email address as schools often block outside emails with attachments.
