A hand for grown-ups

Before you start
A real clock with hands beats a picture. If you have one, have it in view.
While they work
Link times to their day — "the little hand is near the 5, that is nearly dinner". Meaning makes it memorable.
Afterwards
Ask them to tell you the time at a few points during the day. Little and often beats one long session.
Watch out for
Reading the minutes from the wrong hand, or reading 3:45 as "3:9". Which hand is which needs regular gentle reminding.
Away from the screen
Narrate the day by the clock. Let them tell you when a favourite programme starts, or time how long a task takes.

How to play

  1. A question appears on screen

    A maths question is shown in large text at the centre of the play area. A timer bar begins counting down from 60 seconds.

  2. Choose the correct answer

    Answer options are shown as large buttons. Tap an answer, or press keys 1–4 on the keyboard. Any input method works — touch, mouse or keyboard.

  3. Build your streak

    Each consecutive correct answer increases your streak. A longer streak lights up the flame icon and adds a bonus multiplier to the XP you earn for the level.

  4. Finish the level

    Each level has 6 questions. Complete them to earn the full level reward (+10 XP, plus up to +10 XP for a perfect run). Progress is saved locally and shown on the Parent Dashboard.
