“We are learning in Numeracy lessons about how to tell the time.  Mr Fry is teaching us about different times.  We now know quarter past, quarter to and half past and o’clock times.  We learnt that the clock is split in two halves: the right hand side of the clock is the past times and the left hand side of the clock are the to times. We have our own clocks and Mr Fry gives us a time and we have to set the times.  We have to show him when we are ready. The big hand is the minute hand and the little hand is the hour hand.  On the real clock in the classroom we have a third hand to count the seconds but not on our plastic clocks at our desks. Mrs Watson is also teaching us to tell the time in French!  We are just doing o’clock times with her at first.  She tells us the times and we make them on the clock. We also played ‘What’s the time Mr Wolf?’ again with Mrs Watson.  We like that game. Mr Fry will soon teach us about digital clocks and times.”
