Teaching The time

KathS

Our son really does want to be able to tell the time. He wears a watch, although cant read it.

While he wants to be able to tell the time, he doesnt like the learning process. So, we (for instance) will ask him to let us know when it is 5 o'clock etc, so that he gets into the routine, and doesnt feel like he's being taight, if that makes sense. I did print out blank clock faces and draw various times on and ask him , but I think that might feel too much like school, as he disconnects.

As always - ideas or points of view welcome!!

    Thank you for your message...personally, I like your ideas, however I know that I would get a 'not interested!' remark back, he really is only into his games and PC virtual world, nothing else really exists....

    Ah but there is oppertunity here...it could be considered a "trick" I suppose but if a timepiece with branding from his favoured game could be procured...
