Marvellous Maths!
Hi Lynxes, welcome to this week's maths activities where we continue to work on telling the time using an analogue clock. This week we are looking at telling the time to 5 minute intervals. You have had a go at o'clock, half-past, quarter to and quarter past and so this is the next step! Try your best and keep going even if it is a little tricky at first.

We are going to revisit yesterday's learning on telling the time to 5 minute intervals. If you need to remind yourself of the video again- please do feel free to use it! Otherwise, have a go at the worksheet and then mark your answers afterwards.
Answers:
15 minutes past 12
25 minutes to 5

Today we are going to look at what happens when the minute hand (the long hand) isn't pointing exactly to a number on the clock face. This means that we have to look a little more closely to work out how many minutes past or to the hour it is.
Watch the video below to help you learn how to tell the time to the nearest minute. Make notes and pause at any time to talk about it or practise what is being said.

TRUE there are double the number of minutes because in 6 hours there are 360 minutes and in 3 hours there are 180 minutes.

Have a go at reading the times on the clocks. Remember to look carefully as they are all 1 minute intervals!
