Converting 12 Hour to 24 Hour Time – That’s Tough!

Telling time on a 24-hour clock can be confusing, especially when kids are just starting to learn. They’re not always clear on how the numbers change when switching from morning time to afternoon/evening time. This can make it frustrating to figure out what time it is. To help, we’ve found a way to make it easier for everyone to learn how to tell time on a 24-hour clock. This year, we invite you to teach your students how to convert 12 to 24-hour time with an engaging teaching slide presentation!

This teaching presentation is an engaging and interactive way to help your students differentiate between renewable and nonrenewable resources. Over a series of 21 slides, students will participate in a variety of instructions and activities to help them understand how to convert times between the 12 and 24-hour clock. Some features you will find in this presentation are:

  • High-quality, engaging graphics and images
  • Detailed information about how to convert between times
  • Turn and Talk opportunities
  • Review questions at the end of the slide deck

    Slide 20 is incorrect. 7pm converts to 19:00 not 18:00
