Learning to read a clock is an important skill that aids in recognizing the current time, planning, and forecasting the future. However, the concept of a clock is an invisible, abstract entity, making it challenging for children to learn. This is especially true for understanding how to read a clock, the function of the hour and minute hands, and calculating time. The "Move the Hands to Learn Time" app was developed to overcome these difficulties. It is designed for young students in special education schools and lower grades of elementary school, providing features that make learning to read a clock more comprehensible. The app's purpose is to move the clock hands and concretely understand the concept of time. The app has the following features: Moving the hour and minute hands with a finger to display the respective times. "Show" and "Hide" functions for both the hour and minute hands, allowing focused learning on one at a time. Display of extension lines for the hour and minute hands, making it easier to understand the exact time. Display of the range of time indicated by the hour hand, facilitating an understanding of when the hour changes. Free to use, with free updates. This app offers a combination of visual support and practical operation for learning, allowing for immediate verification of time settings. Therefore, it makes learning to read a clock more effective.
