This Video discussed the challenges children with autism may face in learning to tell time, often to delays in processing information and sensory sensitivities. Before teaching time, it’s essential for children to count and recognize numbers from 1 to 12 (for hours) and up to 60 (for minutes). The video recommended introducing hours first, starting with the half – hour marks, then moving on to quarters and five- minute intervals. Tools like sand timers and Velcro clocks can aid understanding, and matching digital to analogue time provides practice. With patience and support, children can develop time- telling skills and manage their daily routines more effectively.
