Understanding time of day is an important concept for kindergarten students. They should be able to recognize and differentiate between morning, afternoon, and evening.
In the morning, the sun rises and it is a time for waking up, getting ready for the day, and having breakfast. Kindergarten students can learn to identify activities that typically happen in the morning, such as going to school or playing outside.
The afternoon comes after the morning and before the evening. It is a time for lunch, playing, and sometimes taking a nap. Kindergarten students can learn to recognize the activities that usually take place in the afternoon, such as recess time at school or visiting the park.
Evening is the time between the late afternoon and bedtime. It is a time for dinner, winding down, and preparing for bedtime. Kindergarten students can learn to associate evening activities with getting ready for bed, such as taking a bath and reading a bedtime story.
As kindergarten students become familiar with the concept of time of day, they can start learning to tell time using simple clocks and understanding the difference between the hour and minute hands.
By understanding the time of day, kindergarten students can develop a sense of routine and structure in their daily lives.
