Time really has flown by us this week – It’s not only Friday, but also March – the beginning of Spring.

The video below shows how the 12 and 24 hour clocks are connected:

Here’s another time problem for the weekend. Remember to post your answers on the blog and we’ll choose a winner on Monday. Last week we had a small successful group of Mathletes – we would love to have a bigger group next week.

Following on from our blog post on time yesterday, we thought we’d end the week with a challenge. Below, there are 6 different time challenges. Give them a go over the weekend, and post your answers on the blog. From those people who get the correct answers, we will choose one winner on Monday. If you bump into anyone from P6/7 over the weekend, let them know it’s on the blog- that way they’ll be in with a chance to win it!

What’s the time Mr Wolf?

Over the next few weeks, in numeracy and maths, we’re going to be looking at time!

By the end of time we’d like everyone to be able to tell the time using am and pm and 24hour clock. In addition to this we aim for everyone to be able to calculate durations in hours and minutes. Some people will calculate durations in seconds and milliseconds, as well as using timetables to find information and plan activities.

This time video brings us back to basics. What is a minute, hour, day?

These two games are great. On the first game, you can choose to do basic time, am/pm, or 24 hour clock. Test yourself and let us know how you get on. The second game will test your ability to calculate time durations.
