Description

Telling Time to the Hour

This Prime Time telling time activity turns reading clocks into a lively class game. Children practice telling time to the hour on both analog clocks and digital clocks, like 3:00 and 8:00. To play, each child must read the time on a card and then listen for a time, so the whole group stays focused on where the hour hand points and what the minute hand at the 12 means.

How to Play I Have, Who Has?

Cut out the 22 game cards and give one to each child. Any child can start by reading the I have side of the card, then asking the Who has question. The child whose card shows that time stands up, reads it and asks the next question. The forms switch on every card, so children turn a clock into a digital time and a digital time back into a clock. The chain goes all the way around the room and ends back at the first card. The prime time telling time activity fits a whole class, a small group or a math center, and it works as a 1st grade telling time activity or a quick review for 2nd grade. A 1st Grade practice worksheet follows the game: children write the time on six clocks and draw the hands on three more.

What’s Included

  • Colorful cover page
  • How to Use page with simple steps
  • 22 I Have, Who Has? game cards on three sheets
  • 1st Grade practice worksheet
  • Card answer key showing the full chain order
  • Answer key for the practice worksheet

Why This Activity Helps Kids

  • Switching between analog and digital clocks builds a strong link between the two.
  • Every child must listen carefully, because any card could be next.
  • Reading aloud to the class builds confidence with time words.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Time the class and play again to beat the record, play in a small group with fewer cards, or let children trade cards between rounds so everyone reads both kinds of clocks.
