It practises reading the half hour — 8 questions for Grade 1, all on Common Core 1.MD.B.3: Read a clock to the hour and half hour. The instruction to pupils is “What time is it?”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.MD.B.3 — 1.MD.B.3, in the Measurement & Data domain for Grade 1. The published standard reads: “Tell and write time in hours and half-hours using analog and digital clocks.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Tell the Time — Half Past is written for Grade 1, typically ages 6-7. It is one of the sheets on 1.MD.B.3, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Yes. All 8 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
Yes. Tell the Time — Half Past, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
