About Time!

A new series of 10 books written by Ann have just been released by Pascal Press. Last week we gave you a preview of the Addition and Subtraction books, this week we’ll start with the book about Time.

In the early sections of the book, Ann emphasizes the difference between the hour and minute hands by introducing the hour hand alone before showing both hands on the clock face. 


What times are showing on these clock faces?

A gentle introduction to the past the hour and to the hour times is also featured as the research into children’s abilities with time show these to be common stumbling blocks. The book also relates the digital clock to the analogue clock as well as setting the scene for understanding calendars.

This book in the series matches well with our new package called Telling the Time, that is described at

The sections on Calendars also match well with one of our IWB programs, Calendars, which you can preview at  http://naturalmaths.com.au/kt_iwb_Calendars.php
