Maths Learning - Week Beginning 2nd November

This week we have started looking at time as a unit of measurement.  We have been using calendars to remind ourselves of the months of the year and their order and we have been using three main success criteria when learning to tell the time:

1. Know what the different hands show on the clock (the hour hand and the minute hand).
2. Divide the clock into halves and quarters to read 1/2 past times and 1/4 past and 1/4 to.
3. Using the minute hand to count around the clock in 5s starting from the 12.

Why not see if the children can work out the 3 success criteria above with your help at home?  Also can they find out the birthdays of some of their family and bring them into school?
