Year 3 Digital to Analogue Time Worksheets – Drawing Clock Hands (Differentiated) 490-492

£1.00

These Year 3 digital to analogue time worksheets are designed to help pupils confidently convert digital times into analogue clocks by drawing the hour and minute hands accurately.

The set is clearly differentiated to support mixed-ability classes and homework tasks, progressing from simpler half-hour and o’clock times to more challenging minute-level times using both 12-hour and 24-hour digital formats.

Pupils are encouraged to use a ruler to draw their clock hands, promoting precision and careful placement. Each worksheet includes a worked example and a QR code linking to a short video explanation to support independent learning at home.

What’s included:

  • Triangles (Lower) – o’clock and half-hour times, including 24-hour digital times

  • Circles (Middle) – mixed times including quarter hours and 5-minute intervals

  • Squares (Higher) – challenging minute-level times (e.g. 10:37, 18:52, 20:24)

  • Answer sheets for all levels (answers accepted within a few minutes either side)

  • Clear, uncluttered clock faces ready for drawing

  • Printable, classroom-ready format

Skills covered:

  • Converting digital time to analogue

  • Understanding the position of the hour hand between numbers

  • Reading time to the nearest minute

  • Interpreting 12-hour and 24-hour clock formats

  • Developing accuracy and confidence with analogue clocks

These worksheets are ideal for classwork, homework, interventions, catch-up sessions, or revision, and pair well with practical clock resources.
