SuitabookTelling time with the judy clock
Carson-Dellosa Publishing Company
- Reading
- Work through a short activity at a time, using the clock alongside the page. Invite the child to explain the vocabulary and show an hour or half-hour, then connect it with a calendar example.
- Themes
- Understanding time: The book teaches children to identify features of a clock and read time at the hour and half-hour through activities and games. Time is presented as a practical skill developed through guided practice and use of a physical clock.
- Calendar knowledge: Calendar concepts are included alongside clock-reading, with the stated aim of building skills for measuring time in everyday life. The book connects named calendar units with practical understanding of time.
- Worth knowing
- Notice whether the child can connect vocabulary and calendar sequences with the clock’s parts, rather than only memorising positions. The book’s usefulness may depend on having the matching clock tool.
