Teaching kids to tell time:
I was looking on easy ways to teach my kindergartner to tell time. Every time I taught him using a real clock he had trouble, he would get confused with hours and minutes. Then his teacher gave me the idea of paper plate clock craft.
Materials needed:
Paper plate
Cardstock
Glue
Paper brad
Markers ( Red and black)
For a step-by-step instruction on paper plate clock follow the link below

After we made this clock things went easy, my first strategy was to teach only hours, once he got good at it we moved to minutes. To teach him minutes first I made him learn multiples of 5. Then to make it easier on him I went by 15, 30 and 45 minutes. The clock is pretty self explanatory and thus its easy on kids to tell time.
