Help your character get rid of all the falling clocks in the bedroom before they hit the floor and it's bedtime.  Digital time is displayed in 15-minute increments, and the student picks a matching analog clock by moving the left and right arrow keys, then using the spacebar to shine a flashlight on the falling clock.  This is a moderately paced game for student practice.  The website offers a premium version of this game, along with their others, for a fee.

Visit the website: The Clock Program
Lesson Plans or Teacher Info

Grade Level Elementary (K-5)
From site:  With this program, you can practice setting the time on two types of clocks:
  • A clock with hands, called an analog clock
  • A clock with numbers only, called a digital clock

The program will give you the time on the digital clock (the clock with numbers), then you move the hands to set the same time on the analog clock. The program will also give you the time on the analog clock (the clock with hands), then you type the numbers to set the same time on the digital clock.

The problems will get a bit more difficult as you use the program. At first, the times will be on the hour, such as 2:00. Then the times may be 2:15, then 2:35, then 2:47. You will also have problems that use different ways of saying the time, such as "4:45" or "15 to 5".
