What is a teaching time clock?

A teaching time clock is a clock that is created specifically to help young students learn how to tell time. These clocks normally include features such as large numbers, movable hands and bright colors to keep students engaged in the learning process.

As of 2015, numerous educational companies, including Frank Shaffer Publications and Learning Resources, produce clocks that teach students how to tell time. Both large classroom clocks and smaller individual clocks are available.

Teachers and parents can find telling time worksheets and instructions on how to create paper teaching time clocks online at sites such as The Teachers Corner.
