Support your students in developing accurate time-telling skills with this engaging Show Me the Time: To the Minute resource! These versatile worksheets provide valuable practise in reading digital time and representing it precisely on an analogue clock face, helping students build fluency and confidence with telling time to the minute.

Students are asked to read a time shown on a digital clock, with times presented in both 12-hour and 24-hour formats. They then represent the same time by drawing the hour and minute hands on an analogue clock face. This clear and structured activity supports students in strengthening their understanding of the relationship between digital and analogue time, while developing accuracy in representing time visually.

Show Me the Time: To the Minute is perfect for whole-class lessons, small group rotations, or independent practise. It is a fantastic resource for supporting deeper understanding of time and building flexible thinking as students move between time formats.

• 💡 Use as an assessment tool to observe students’ ability to accurately convert and represent time formats.

Top Teacher Tips:

• 💛 Model how to accurately position the hour and minute hands when representing time to the minute.
• 💛 Provide visual support (such as a classroom clock or interactive clock display) to help students practise accurate hand placement.
• 💛 Differentiate by providing targeted practise with either 12-hour or 24-hour times as needed.
• 💛 Encourage students to verbalise the time as they work to strengthen oral fluency with time vocabulary.

Show Me the Time: To the Minute is a fantastic resource for helping students build fluency, accuracy, and flexibility with time-telling. It’s ideal for developing strong skills in representing time across multiple formats and preparing students to confidently use time in everyday contexts!
