Kindergarteners develop an informal understanding of time through daily routines: morning, afternoon, evening, and night; days of the week; yesterday, today, and tomorrow. CCSS K.MD.B is the measurement and data domain, but formal clock reading begins in first grade (1.MD.B.3). Kindergarten time work is primarily about sequencing and vocabulary.

Anchor time vocabulary to classroom routines: we have morning meeting, then reading, then snack. Use a daily schedule chart with pictures. Read books that follow a character through a day. Calendar time is also valuable for days of the week and months. Worksheets that ask students to sequence pictures of daily events build temporal reasoning without requiring clock reading.

Formal clock reading - telling time to the hour and half-hour - is a first-grade standard (CCSS 1.MD.B.3). In kindergarten, exposure to analog clocks through classroom display and discussion is appropriate, but students are not expected to independently tell time. If a kindergartener is interested in reading clocks, on-the-hour times are an appropriate introduction.
