This week, our Year 3 mathematicians have been diving deep into telling the time, revisiting and building upon their knowledge from Year 2. We focused on digital and analogue clocks, emphasising how we describe time on a digital clock. The children continued to practice using the phrases "minutes past" and "minutes to" the hour. This helped them understand the important convention that a digital time like 3:40 is best described as "20 minutes to 4," rather than "40 minutes past 3." This session was key in helping them connect times past the hour to times to the hour.
