    It saddens me to say, as an Army recruit-instructor, I've had to teach young adults how to tell time. I'm supposed to be teaching these nascent warriors how to fight, navigate using a map/compass, survive in a chemical environment, administer life saving first aid and countless other vital skills but the buggers can't even tell the time.
    No wonder I've got grey hair!

    On an open day event at the UK's National Physical Laboratory, I went to presentation on the international time standard UTC. The young scientist was giving his talk standing in front of a large digital display connected directly to THE standard clock, yet whenever he wanted to check he wasn't overrunning he would pull his smartphone out of his pocket. It made me chuckle.

I do have one particular memory of my mum getting up suddenly half way through his show and my dad asking where she was going. Her reply? I just peed myself a bit. God that just totaly killed me. I remember being on the floor almost in pain from laughing. It is a memory I truly cherish. Thank you Dave Allen for giving me these. RIP you are truly missed.

    I remember learning how to read the clock, a long long time ago in elementary school back in the early 70s - wow, I'm starting to feeling old ;) We had to make clocks from cardboard and we moved the "hands" according to our teacher trying to show us different times, hours and minutes. I couldn't get a grasp of anything. And after some days of that and me still not getting it, back at home with my mother in the kitchen, she pointed at the kitchen clock and asked me what time it was. And I just told her. Somehow it clicked and that was that. Like some sort of muscle memory. Sometimes things get complicated by overthinking.

    We are in a digital world, but back in the day everything was analog, so we were taught that the minute hand takes an hour, or 60 minutes, to go round and the hour hand takes 12 hours to go round. I remember a test with a blank circle and two hands, with no numbers, just the quarter marks, and having to answer with the time. The numbers on the dial are actually a distraction.

    David Tynan O'Mahoney (birth name) aka Dave Allen (stage name)was so fuuny with his observational humour, it was just out of this world. Regret to say he has met his demise. However, to the teacher among you, when teaching children to read the analogue clock, just show them this short film of him. There is no bad language in it. It is just FUNNY. Compound the clock face with number, them you can have Roman Numeralds'. Best Wishes!!!!

    We were taught how to read clock by drawing the clock and marking the time. The teacher would give us a time (either a direct time or something like 10 past 2 or 30 to 18 etc.) and we had to draw the clock. The hour hand, the minute hand, the minute and hour markers the whole thing.

    On a documentary about Dave Allen they said this skit is actually shorter than his live version of Teaching Your Kid Time. The full version they said was about 10 or 15 minutes long. We are so lucky to have any of his material still to watch as he had in his contract that none of his shows were to be repeated. Even now in the UK it is very rare for his shows to be shown in repeats, so whenever they are they are a real treat.

    If I was a teacher I'd put an analogue clock on the wall behind my head and ask the kids at random times of the day what time it read. Would need to set it to the wrong time to catch out the cheats. And I'd tell them all that everyone who gets it right gets to leave 5 minutes before everyone else (to keep it with a time theme). Pretty soon they'd all be experts.

    Working in Aviation I live on 24 hour time for work (Z/GMT) and home on local time. But as an Aussie expat in the States no one can understand "military time" and with my partner being from the UK she calls Lunch "Dinner" and Dinner "Tea" like my grandparents used to at home. So when I arrive back completely tired I cannot communicate 24 hour time with anyone out side of work and when I'm half comatose and woken up for "dinner" and it's light outside my brain just crashes like an old Pentium III.

Then he said "now I want you to move your queen to stop my knight (perhaps - wasn't sure about the pieces). Obviously I was completely lost and wrong. He exploded and told me I was a total idiot - happily my mother told him he was the total idiot who had no idea of teaching !

    My dad taught me from his wrist watch when I was 3years old, he also taught me basic maths.. At the same time my mum was teaching me to read and write. They wanted me to be able to read, write, do basic maths and tell the time by time I started primary school in England at 4. They both did great job, as I never went to nursery school before proper school. My mum was housewife whilst dad worked as engineer so mum made sure I knew all the basics and then some extras. And my dad after work would teach me maths,telling the time. I learnt cursive writing when was 6 at home along with piano and basic French too, in always remember learning from them both and really enjoying it. Was a complete book nut from age 3 onwards, still am now. Blows my mind when I see teenagers not able to tell the time or know anything about their country's history or basic general knowledge. Makes me want to cringe knowing they are the future generation.

    As said in the video, just focus on the hour pointer, it's easy to learn kids what hour it point on.
    To figure out more exact, we use the next pointer after they have learned to understand the hours.
    Since one hour is 60 minutes, It chould not be so hard for them to understand the minute scale.
    The rest can be ignored, they will get that after some time.

    Have you tried a linear 24 hr line, made up of two lines with the hrs line on top made up of 12 hrs and the 60 minute line underneath. You have a pointer on the top and bottom so you can slide them to the hour number you want as you are explaining the hour and minutes. Make sure you have a correlating clock representation at the side so that children can come up and move the hands of that clock to what is represented on the lines!! Get hold of the wood working teacher to help using his class as a project maybe. You can work it out I’m sure! You know that these snippets of the Dave Allen Show which was an hour long show going on for a long time right?

    I'm old school, to me an analogue watch is more effective than a digital one, you don't need to read the numbers, just look at the position of the hands. A digital watch reads 6:57, which you need to analyse, an analogue watch has the hour hand on the 7 and the minute hand near the 12, without any thought, it's 7 o'clock. Digital age people would probably disagree.

    The best way to learn telling the time is by rote. Teach kids to memorise the times. Eventually they will realise how hours and minutes work.

    That part could have gone on for a duration, too, if Dad hadn’t have been careful and pulled up when he did!....
    “....the second hand is the minute hand and the third hand is the second hand!........No, I said the minute hand is the second hand!.....Yes, I did say the third hand was the second hand and the second hand was the minute hand.....no, it doesn’t mean there are two minute hands......because the third hand is the second hand, all right?!! They’re two separate things!!!....The minute hand is the second hand which means the second hand logically is the third hand. Got it?.......what?.....NO, IT DOES NOT MEAN THERE ARE TWO SECOND HANDS, EITHER!!.........BECAUSE I BLOODY WELL SAID SO,THAT’S WHY, YOU LITTLE.....!!!” (And so on!! 😁👍)

    Many kids know bugger all before they go to school nowadays. My mother taught me how to tell the time and I could read quite well before I started school. I finished all of my reading books half way through the term and had to go to the school library instead. Lazy parenting now.

    Am 52 and still can't tell the time, am on the autistic spectrum, it must be hard to tell when students are slower at picking things up with the students that can't pick certain things up, I learned how to fool people at an early age at school with little tricks, till a eye test went wrong, for years I memorised the eye charts listening to people in front of me till one day I went first, they said i was blind as a bat 😂 they thought I'd had a head injury because how sudden I couldn't see and had a brain scan, they found out I had bad eyesight for years, and that I had been going up to the teachers to ask questions but unknowingly to them it was so i could memorise the blackboard, they just thought I was a little slow, I still can't read proper instead I've memorise words, that works until I come across a new word, I don't have the ability to workout how the letters make sounds, i have to hear the new word spoken several times to recall it, I once helped write a medical paper on why we stick our tongue out in the corner of our mouth when we concentrate hard (motor overflow) so my hats off to teachers for not jyst teaching but spotting conditions and other problems that effect learning before it becomes a problem, and not jyst pass some students off as "jyst slow of mind" like my teachers did, times change and so has teaching methods and their awareness, carry on the good work and hopefully people won't slip past to often

    In grad school they taught us time with a piece of paper with a clock on it and with a pencil we would follow the teachers instructions and learn that way, some reporters go to college towns and ask the kids what time is on this paper? They do not know and you ask them what a quarter hour is and they say 25 after, I fell sorry for us since this is what has become of our young and they don't know where or stats are and so on. What do they really teach these kids?

    Then try to teach them how to read an analogue clock with both 12 and 24 hour markings. And yes the same, I grew up before the digitally educated, so there was no choice but to learn how to read a clock.

    I would teach in separate dials. Then overlap the dials. The remove the minute markers.
