Mathematics - Time

According to "NSW Syllabus for the Australian Curriculum" by the end of Stage 2 the children will " read and record time in hours and minutes, convert between units of time, and solve simple problems involving the duration of time."
Over the next few weeks the children will investigate rich tasks organised to help develop their understanding of time. below you can find a blog about the task with a few photos.

In the classroom we have been learning about 'Time" like 2.14 and 10.12. We have discussed what an analog clock is and how to record on a digital clock. Today we also found out that AM means 'Ante Meridiem' and PM means 'Post Meridiem'. They are Latin words.
Most of us drew a clock with time on it. James showed us an easy way to draw an analog clock so the numbers are correctly positioned around it. Thanks James!

We have been discussing how we can use our five timestables when telling the time.

We are recording in digital time as well as analog time.

Mrs Standring talked to us about when to use AM and PM.

During number busting we busted the number 60 because there is 60 minutes in one hour and 60 seconds in one minute.
