A playful introduction to the clock and time
The Clock and time game provides player assistance for reading the analog clock. Children can observe the position of the hour hand and the minute hand, connect the time seen on the dial with the corresponding time value, and practice the whole, half and quarter hours through short tasks.
In addition to mathematics, reading lessons is also an important part of everyday orientation. Regular, short practice helps the child to more reliably understand the relationship between hours and minutes, to recognize the role of the pointers, and to adjust more and more independently between the times of the day.
Operational logic
In the game, you have to recognize the displayed time based on the indicators on the dial, and choose the correct answer for the task. The hour hand indicates the hour, the longer minute hand indicates the minutes; the combined interpretation of the two pieces of information gives the exact time.
The tasks give immediate feedback, so the child immediately sees whether he has read the lesson correctly. Newer attempts help you distinguish the indicators and recognize the 5-minute schedules, while the short gameplay keeps you focused throughout.
What does the Clock and Time game develop?
Reading the time simultaneously exercises several important skills:
- Concept of time: It helps you understand the relationship between hours, half hours, quarter hours and minutes.
- Mathematical thinking: Practice counting by 5 and dividing the 60-minute clock.
- Visual perception: Develops accurate discrimination of the position, length and direction of pointers.
- Attention and concentration: For the correct answer, you must observe the hour hand and the minute hand at the same time.
- Daily orientation: It supports a more reliable interpretation of the agenda, times and durations.
