Use connectives to add detail to your work!
Numeracy focus -
reading the time to the minute e.g. five to eight, twenty five past 7 etc. Knowing how many months in a year, days in a week, hours in a day and minutes in an hour and using this to solve problems e.g. How many hours are there in a day and a half? If we went to school at half past eight and it only lasted half a day, what time would school finish? etc. Try some of these games to help with telling the time:
