Take your Year 4 children outdoors to secure their understanding of time through games, active movement and practical learning. In this outdoor unit, your children focus on converting analogue to digital time for both 12-hour and 24-hour, as well as comparing length of time in hours, weeks, months and years. Containing all the resources you need, this unit will be sure to engage your children in this concept.
In this outdoor lesson, your children will look at how to convert between different lengths of time, working together in teams and incorporating physical movement into activities that give them a chance to convert between months and days and vice versa, while drawing on their knowledge of multiples of 7.
During this outdoor lesson, children will play games to consolidate their understanding of time unit conversion. They’ll also need to use their problem-solving skills and use a range of equipment to test their understanding of the length of time.
Develop your children’s understanding of how to convert between digital and analogue time in both am and pm. They’ll work practically to demonstrate their understanding and secure their understanding of the 12-hour clock.
The main activity of this outdoor lesson gives your children the opportunity to practise using the 24-hour clock. They’ll be tasked with converting from 12-hour to 24-hour and look to solve practical problems as a class in relation to this through contextual learning.
Deepen your children’s understanding of converting between 12-hour and 24-hour time using this fun and engaging outdoor lesson. Your children will take on the role of supermarket staff completing various tasks and scheduling problems to build on and secure their time conversions.
