Instruccions de funcionament
Using the Teaching Clock
The main teaching clock features synchronized hour (red) and minute (blue) hands. When you move one hand, the other hand moves proportionally, mimicking a real clock's movement. This helps children understand the relationship between hours and minutes.
- Hora de configuració: Gently rotate either the hour or minute hand to set a specific time. Observe how the other hand adjusts automatically.
- Hora de lectura: Point to the hour hand first to identify the hour, then the minute hand to identify the minutes. The clock face includes minute markings (5, 10, 15, etc.) for easier reading.

Using Puzzle Cards
The 24 double-sided puzzle cards feature analog clock faces on one half and digital times on the other. Children match the analog time to its corresponding digital time.
- Matching Activity: Shuffle the puzzle pieces. Have the child select an analog clock piece and find the digital time piece that matches.
- Time Recognition: Use the puzzle cards to reinforce recognition of time in both formats.

Using Write & Wipe Cards and Time Dice
The 12 double-sided daily activity cards and 3 time dice provide interactive ways to practice writing and telling time in context.
- Daily Activities: Use the write & wipe activity cards to associate specific times with daily routines (e.g., "wake up at 7:00"). Children can write the time on the card using a dry-erase marker (not included).
- Dice Games: Roll the time dice to generate random times. Children can then set the time on the teaching clock or write it on the write & wipe clock.
