What to Focus On

  • 60 seconds make 1 minute
  • 60 minutes make 1 hour
  • 24 hours make 1 day
  • Multiply when converting to smaller units
  • Divide when converting to larger units
  • Always check the remainder in division for leftover units
  • a.m. = before noon, p.m. = after noon
  • 24-hour clock does not use a.m. or p.m.
  • To convert p.m. to 24-hour: add 12

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Students think 12:00 a.m. means noon and 12:00 p.m. means midnight.

Students add time like regular numbers without regrouping (e.g., 45 min + 30 min = 75 min, not 1 hour 15 min).

Students subtract time without borrowing correctly (e.g., 5:20 - 1:30 = 4:10).

Memory Tips

60 seconds = 1 minute

60 minutes = 1 hour

24 hours = 1 day

7 days = 1 week
