What it practises
Moving a clock forwards and backwards — the link between the dial and "dinner in half an hour".
  • · Only after they can read a clock. Doing both at once means failing at both.
  • · Make them draw the hands on the second dial. Writing the number straight away turns it into crossing 60 in their head.
