Time and the calendar worksheet: Answers and working
Part A: Working out and filling in
1. 10 o'clock
Start at 3 o'clock. Each hour, the hour hand moves on one number. Move it on 7.
Count on 7 hours from 3: 3 + 7 = 10, so 10 o'clock.
2. 1 o'clock
The minute hand on 12 means o'clock, and the hour hand is on 1: 1 o'clock
3. Half past 1
The minute hand on 6 means half past, and the hour hand is between 1 and 2, just past 1: half past 1
4. 8 o'clock → 11 o'clock = 3 hours
8 o'clock → 11 o'clock: the hour hand counts on from 8 to 11: 9, 10, 11, 3 numbers; or 11 − 8 = 3, so 3 hours
5. 2 o'clock → 5 o'clock = 3 hours
2 o'clock → 5 o'clock: the hour hand counts on from 2 to 5: 3, 4, 5, 3 numbers; or 5 − 2 = 3, so 3 hours
6. C → A → B → D
The week starts on Sunday, then Monday, Tuesday … Saturday. Follow that order.
Sunday, Monday … Saturday: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
7. 10 months
What number month are January and November? Then take the smaller from the bigger.
November is month 11 and January is month 1: 11 − 1 = 10.
8. A → C → D → B
Think what number month each one is, then put them in order from smallest.
In order from January to December: April, May, June, July.
9. 11, 26
Day-month-year: the first number is the day, the second the month.
The first number is the day, the second the month, the last the year: 26 November 2020.
Part B: Choose, or true or false
10. D. Half past 10
Look at the minute hand first: on 6 means half past. Then see which number the hour hand has just passed.
Minute hand on 6: half past. The hour hand is between 10 and 11: half past 10.
11. B. Tuesday
Count back: the day before Friday is day 1. Keep going back to day 3.
Count back 3 days from the day before Friday: Tuesday.
12. D. Saturday
Look up from the circled date: the top of its column tells you the day of the week.
Look up from the circled 4: it is a Saturday.
Part C: Word problems
Marking: 2 for the working, 1 for the answer, 1 for the sentence.
13. 4 hours
From 8 o'clock to 12 o'clock, how many numbers does the hour hand pass? Each one is an hour.
12 − 8 = 4 hours.
14. Ka-lok gets home from football and looks at the clock: the minute hand points to 6, and the hour hand is between 6 and 7. At half past what does he get home? (Answer: 6)
The hour hand has passed 6 but not reached 7; the minute hand on 6 means half past: half past 6.
15. A public pool is open from 9 o'clock to 12 noon, then closes for a break and opens again from 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock. How many hours is it open each day altogether? (Answer: 5 hours)
Before the break: 12 − 9 = 3 hours; After the break: 5 − 3 = 2 hours (the break doesn't count); 3 + 2 = 5
16. 3 days
Start from the day after today, Thursday, and count day by day until Sunday.
Count from the day after Thursday to Sunday: 3 days.
17. 2 months
December is month 12. What number month is October?
December is month 12: 12 − 10 = 2.
18. 20
First see which date is circled, then count on 3 days.
17 + 3 = 20: the 20th.
