Make Your Classroom Calendar Time Tick With A Digital Clock Template

For students in early grades, maintaining a daily calendar and reviewing time regularly is extremely beneficial in enhancing their mathematical skills. Introducing young learners to the concepts of time and date not only helps them grasp the sequence of events but also instils a sense of responsibility and routine. A daily calendar serves as a visual aid, allowing students to anticipate upcoming activities, assignments, and important events. It is an opportunity for daily practise with counting, making patterns, and building number sense.

A Hands-On Digital Clock Template

This hands-on digital clock template is a breeze to add to your daily classroom calendar routine. There are only two steps!

1. Print this clock template and then laminate it.
2. Use velcro dots to easily change the numbers and time on the clock.

Each day, show students a set time on an analogue clock. Have them work together or write the time shown independently on a dry erase board. Once they’ve developed their own answer, use the clock template and number cards to show them the correct digits to use to tell the time by placing them on the clock.
