Telling Time Poster
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Telling Time Poster" is written for 1st Grade (Ages 6-7). If your little one is a year younger but already steady on time, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and telling time never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.


Telling Time Poster gives 1st grade classrooms a single page of hands-on practice with clocks and time, ready to print and use today. Part of our telling time time collection.
How do I use this resource?
Post the anchor chart where your 1st grade class can see it during math time, or print individual copies for desks and take-home folders. Point to the poster whenever you introduce a new time-telling skill, from the hour hand to five-minute intervals. Kids can also use it as a self-check while practicing on a real or play clock. At home, keep it near a real clock so your child can compare the picture to the real thing.
What students will practice
- Gives 1st grade students a clear visual reference for reading a clock face and telling time.
- Builds the connection between hour and minute hands and the numbers they point to.
- Works as a wall anchor chart or a personal reference during telling-time practice.

What does this resource teach?
⌄
This telling-time collection gives 1st grade teachers and parents reference posters and an anchor chart showing a clock face with the hour and minute hands clearly labeled. Some versions are built as classroom anchor charts meant to stay posted throughout a time-telling unit, while others work as a single-page reference kids can keep at their desk. The visuals focus on how the two hands work together rather than drilling specific times. Pair any of them with real practice on a play clock or the classroom clock to make the connection concrete.
Can I use this telling time resource for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 1st Grade time, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with telling time. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
How many 1st Grade telling time resources are there?
⌄
2 printable resources, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are telling time resources for?
⌄
These are written for 1st Grade students, roughly ages 6-7. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these telling time resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 1st Grade classroom, a literacy centre, or a tutoring session.
