Analogue & Digital Time
What are analogue and digital clocks? There are two types of clocks and they tell the time in different ways.
Analogue clocks have a face with numbers from 1 to 12 and two hands. The hands move and point to the numbers to show what time it is.
Digital clocks show the time using numbers on a screen.
Click on the image above to complete this interactive activity to learn about analogue and digital time. Then put your knowledge to the test.
Teaching Clock is an open-ended teaching resource to help children explore telling the time in both analogue and digital formats. The digital clocks can be viewed in either 12-hour or 24-hour layout.

Roman numerals are the numbers that were first used by the ancient Romans. They used combinations of letters from the alphabet (I, V, X, L, C, D and M) to correspond to different numbers. Although Arabic numerals (1,2,3,4,5...) are more common today, there are still many places where Roman numerals can be found.
