P4 January Activities 1 Online Maths Games for weeks 1 & 2

18th Jan 2021

Here are the online maths sites for weeks 1 and 2 in January.  The first five games are all about time.  The final game will help you practise your multiplication knowledge.  Use the website https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/5-7-years/measures to find these games or click directly on the links below.  You should choose 1 game to play every day each week and practise until you are getting all the answers right.

1) Telling the Time          https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/116/telling-the-time 

This game encourages pupils to read the time on an analogue clock. There are lots of choices over levels, including: reading time to the nearest hour, half hour, quarter hour, five minutes or minute. You can also check how many correct answers you can get in a given time.  Always play the 12 hour version of the game.  You can play levels 1 - 5.

2) Telling the Time in Words https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/117/telling_the_time_in_words#

This game encourages pupils to read the time on an analogue clock. There are lots of choices over levels, including: reading time to the nearest hour, half hour, quarter hour, five minutes or minute. You can also check how many correct answers you can get in a given time.  Everyone should be practising with levels 1 - 3 as we have covered reading all these times in school.  Squares and Triangles should try level 4 although this tests reading some times to the hour which we did not cover yet this year.

3) Hickory Dickory Clock           http://www.ictgames.com/mobilePage/hickoryDickory/index.html     

This is a tell the time game which encourages pupils to:
tell the time to the hour and half past the hour
tell and write the time to five minutes, including quarter past/to the hour
tell and write the time from an analogue clock, including using Roman numerals from I to XII

Level One includes a o'clock, half past, quarter to/past

Level Two involves reading time to the nearest 5 minutes

Level Three involves reading a clock which uses Roman Numerals.

Everyone should complete Level One.  Squares and Triangles should test their clock reading abilities with level 2.

4) Time Tools - 12 hour to the half hour       http://www.scootle.edu.au/ec/viewing/L9643/index.html#

This is a teaching tool to teach the basics of analogue and digital time.  Use this tool to help your child with understanding any aspects of time that they find difficult.  Finish off by playing matching pairs with analogue and digital times.

5) Clock Splat     https://www.sheppardsoftware.com/math/time/clock-splat-game/

This game allows you to match simple analogue and digital times.  There are three levels of difficulty - hours, half hours and quarter hours.  You should be able to try them all and manage them quite easily.

6) Coconut Multiples      https://www.topmarks.co.uk/times-tables/coconut-multiples

Coconut Multiples is a tablet-friendly maths game which can reinforce your knowledge of times tables by helping you to recognise the multiples from each table. You can select multiples up to the 12 or 10 times table. Multiples can then be worked on either as individual times tables or mixed.   Try completing the 2, 5 and 10 multiples first. If you can manage these, try the 3 times multiples.
