DD is in yr 1 and numeracy homework was telling the time this weekend. Quarter past, quarter to and half past. She was clearly struggling, so I done a quick Google and found timemonsters, sat her in front of the lessons. She recognized them apparently having seen them at school and proceeded to gget all the questions right (find me quarter to 3 etc). Told me ot was easy and was fine.
Then sat her in front of her homework saying "what's this time?" And it was "can't remember".
I have done this 4 times today and she still cannot do it. I am no teacher and have to admit to not handling it very well .....frustrated is putting it mildly.
How do they teach her how to do this and how can I help her learn? I just don't know how to help and I'm getting no guidance from school
TIA
