Title: Telling Time in English

Grade level: 1st-2nd

Objective: Students will be able to read and tell time in English to the nearest hour, half-hour, and
quarter-hour.

Materials:

 Analog and digital clocks


 Worksheets for practice
 Whiteboard and markers
 Flashcards with time expressions (e.g., "It's one o'clock," "It's half past two," "It's a quarter to four")
 Interactive clock games (e.g., Time-telling Treasure Hunt, Stop the Clock, Telling Time Quiz)

Procedure:

1. Introduction (5 minutes)
 Begin by asking the students if they know how to read a clock in English.
 Show them an analog clock and a digital clock and ask them to identify the different parts.
 Explain to them that today they will be learning how to tell time in English on both types of clocks.
2. Teaching (15 minutes)
 Use a whiteboard to draw an analog clock and demonstrate how to tell time in English to the nearest
hour, half-hour, and quarter-hour.
 Use flashcards to demonstrate different time expressions (e.g., "It's one o'clock," "It's half past two,"
"It's a quarter to four").
 Ask the students to practice telling time in English by calling out random times, and having them
identify the corresponding time on a clock.
3. Practice (20 minutes)
 Provide each student with a worksheet that has various times in English on it.
 Ask them to write the correct time on the analog and digital clocks provided.
 Once they complete the worksheet, check their work and provide feedback.
4. Games (20 minutes)
 Divide the class into groups of four or five.
 Give each group an analog or digital clock and a set of flashcards with time expressions.
 Call out a time expression and ask the groups to create that time on their clock.
 The first group to create the correct time wins the round.
 Repeat this activity with different time expressions until all the groups have had a chance to
participate.
5. Conclusion (5 minutes)
