Description

* Listed in the top 3 of educational apps in the Dutch App Store!

‘Set the clock’ can help your child to learn to tell time and revives old times by reintroducing the wooden clock on the iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch!

You can practice together with your child, or let him/her perform assignments on his/her own using the nine game types in the App: "Set the clock’, ‘Tell the time’, ‘Adjust the clock’ and more. The assignments are clearly pronounced in English.

Besides English, it is also possible to have the assignments spoken in Dutch, German, French, Spanish and even Chinese. This makes that "Set the clock" can provide enough challenge even for older children.

Each game type, has five levels of difficulty. When enough correct answers are given, you are rewarded with a bronze, silver or gold medal!

Features:
- Beautifully designed wooden clock.
- Earn medals and shows that you are a real time telling champion!
- Multiple game modes (nine in total; analog and digital):
> Learn to set the clock to the correct time.
> Choose which clock displays the correct time.
> Learn to set the clock ahead or back.
- Tap the clock’s digits to hear what number it is.
- English spoken, so your child can practice independently.
- Different levels: hours, half hours, per quarter and per 5 minutes.
- Also suitable for older children / pupils, because of the ability to tell time in other languages.

In short: a great educational app for both young and old. Learn telling time is just as fun as ever!

Teacher review

This IMO is an excellent app. It takes into account the different ways of learning, starts with passive and moves to expressive. ) It’s very compartmentalized in that it takes scaffolded learning into consideration as you move up in levels. Players can focus on areas they need improvement without with inundated with irrelevant content (for my son it is the quarters of the hour we need to work on). There is a sound option in which the direction can be read to you, but can also be turned on and off. There is digital, analog, telling time, setting time and visual representations of am and pm. The only critiques are: slow response/reaction time for correct answers, the sound of getting something incorrect could be a bit too gratifying (for us it was and we shut it off) and it could be more engaging with animations as right now I feel it is more suited to older learners. As a teacher & a mother of a child on the Spectrum, this app really has a lot going for it and I highly recommend.

French

I set the language to French, but everything still appears in English. Please help!

Developer Response ,

When you change the language, only the assignments are in the language of choice. The interface is in the language set on the iPad.

Teaching would be nice too

Clock function is good and realistic. Would be nice if it taught as well as it tested knowledge.
