Learning Resources Classroom Clock Kit – Hands-On Time-Telling for Preschool & Elementary

Overview

Elevate time-telling lessons from memorization to hands-on discovery with the Learning Resources Big Time Classroom Clock Kit. The centerpiece is a large 13-inch demonstration clock that anchors instruction, while 24 mini 4-inch student clocks give every learner a personal practice station. A hidden gearing mechanism preserves the natural relationship between hour and minute hands, helping students observe how real clocks behave rather than rely on simplified visuals.

Classroom-ready design and visuals

With bold, high-contrast colors—bright yellow faces with clear numerals and blue and red hands—time concepts stay visually accessible across ages 5 and up. The sturdy plastic construction stands up to daily classroom use, reducing downtime caused by fragile paper clocks. The included activity guide expands opportunities beyond basic telling time, offering structured games and exercises that scale for different skill levels, from beginners to ESL learners.

Why this matters

Quality gear like this kit fosters independence, confidence, and a tangible sense of time. Visual cues paired with hands-on practice help translate concepts to everyday routines, from scheduling tasks to transitions. While progress varies, many classrooms report more frequent participation during math centers after focused sessions.
