It’s Time to Make A Clock! Printable Clock Template

Elementary students often find it hard to tell time with analog and digital clocks and understand hours, minutes, and seconds. This year, help your students master the art of telling the time by creating a supportive learning environment and using hands-on math activities. This will make the learning process more engaging and enjoyable for students while improving their time-telling skills.

The Teach Starter Team has been hard at work creating handy, hands-on learning activities to help your students tackle time, starting with a handy DIY clock template.
