O' clocks and big and little hands can be fairly tricky. This topic will have them telling the time like a Swiss train driver in no time at all. Covers quarter past and quarter to, half past, o clock, even analogue and digital. You'll be pleased to see that time related vocabulary makes an appearance too.
We love these simple Crick teaching resources - wonderful.
