How to use this worksheet
- Look at the model before drawing: a circle for the face, two short arches for the bells on top, then the hands — the long one pointing up, the short one slanting.
- Your child draws the face, the two bells and the hands of each alarm clock alone, in that order, starting on the left edge of the face like the model.
What this worksheet teaches
Drawing clocks from a model tests planning and checking: the circle must close before the bells go on top, and both hands have to start from the exact center. Comparing each clock with the model, and fixing the next one, prepares for copying round letters like o, a and d.
Play idea
Clockmaker's window: for each row, your child chooses the clock that looks most like the model to put in the shop window, then says what time it could be showing.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Can this worksheet help with learning to tell the time?
A little: the model always shows the same time, but once the rows are done your child can draw a few extra clocks with hands showing different times and read them aloud with you.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 6–8 — six rows of alarm clocks drawn from the model test round shapes and small details placed inside them.
How long does this worksheet take?
About 15 minutes for the six rows of medium alarm clocks; a break after row three keeps the faces round rather than egg-shaped.
