Time

I am learning to identify and sequence:

• events from my day
• when they happen (the time)
• how long they take (duration)

I know I can do it when I can recognise:

• when things happen
• how long they take
• the sequence of events

Independent Task

• Open your green lined book.
• Rule a line under any previous work to rule off.
• Write today’s date.
• Write the heading “Time”

Your Day

Draw four events that happen as part of your usual day.

Record the following in a table:

• The order of the events

• What time this event usually happens (e.g. morning, when I wake up, 7:30am, are suitable descriptions)

• How long does this event usually take to complete (e.g. 10 minutes, 1 hour)

Event	Time (when)	Duration (how long)
1.Brush teeth	7:30am	2 minutes
2.
3.
4.

Times of Day

Here are five pictures showing something happening at different times of the day.

Have a good look at each one, think about:

• What do you see in the picture?
• What is happening?
• Could you describe it to someone else?

Complete the following tasks:

1. Put the 5 pictures in order (sequence) that you think they might happen in a day.
2. Suggest what time these things happen in the day and draw that time on an analogue clock.
