What do children learn about time in 1st grade?

In 1st grade (ages 6–7), children learn the parts of a clock and the job of the hour and minute hands. They tell and write time to the hour and half hour on analog and digital clocks, such as 3:00 and half past 3.

How can RepeatWatch help with telling time?

Loop the part of a lesson that shows where the hour hand points at half past, and slow it to 0.75× so your child can follow both hands. Save the hour and half hour examples to keys 1–9, and play a clock song on Repeat one.

Frequently asked questions

What should my child be able to do after this unit?

A child should be able to read an analog clock to the hour and half hour, match it to a digital time like 7:30, say o'clock and half past, and draw the hands for a given time.

Some videos mention quarter hours or minutes. Is that a problem?

A few songs, like Jack Hartmann's Hip-Hop Around the Clock, go a little beyond the half hour. That is a gentle preview of 2nd grade, where children tell time to five minutes. Loop only the hour and half hour parts if you prefer.

How can I keep screen time short?

Set Stop after so one clock song plays two or three times and ends, then practise with a real clock or a paper one. Grade levels vary by country and school, so follow your child's pace.
