Telling the Time
You can set this page as a homework task for a group of students; doing so will give you a record of who has completed the task. Visit the teacher's section for more information. You can share this page by using the link below. This is a mini-game to learn and practice telling the time in English. Students can interact with a clock to change the time and there is also a mini-game which involves matching a time phrase to a clock. The first screen shows an analog clock displaying a time - initially 9 o'clock - and a pane below showing the matching time phrase. On the second screen there is a mini-game. While playing the game, a cat is displayed in the bottom left of the screen, with a bridge infront of her. The target language is time phrases, specifically: Half past, quarter past, quarter to, five past/to, ten past/to, twenty past/to, twenty-five past/to. These were chosen as they are the main phrases used to tell the time. This game is made with Javascript with the CreateJS framework.
