Note for Parents & Teachers

This follows the NCERT Class 3 chapter "Time Goes On". The long hand points to the minutes: on 3 it is 15 minutes, on 5 it is 25 minutes, on 9 it is 45 minutes. Football fact used: half-time lasts 15 minutes. At home, ask your child to read a clock to the nearest 5 minutes and to find dates on a calendar.
