Step-by-step solution for: am pm clock general grammar practice: English ESL worksheets pdf & doc
Let’s think through this step by step.
We have a 24-hour clock circle divided into four parts:
- Top = “day” → around noon (12:00)
- Bottom = “night” → around midnight (00:00 or 24:00)
- Left = “am” → morning hours (before noon)
- Right = “pm” → afternoon/evening hours (after noon)
The labels we need to place are:
→ morning, midnight, evening, afternoon, noon
Now let’s match them to the correct positions on the clock:
1. Noon — This is 12:00 in the middle of the day. On the clock, that’s at the top, where it says “day”. So “noon” goes at the top.
2. Midnight — This is 00:00 or 24:00, the start/end of the day. That’s at the bottom, where it says “night”. So “midnight” goes at the bottom.
3. Morning — This is during the “am” time, before noon. The left side of the clock is labeled “am”, and the sun/moon icon there shows sunrise (yellow sun on left). So “morning” goes on the left.
4. Afternoon — This is after noon but before evening. It’s still daytime, so it should be on the right side (“pm”), but not too late — maybe around 13:00–17:00. Since “evening” is later, “afternoon” fits better earlier in the pm section. But looking at the diagram, the right side has two icons: one at 18:00 (sunset?) and one at 12:00? Wait — actually, the red lines divide the circle into quadrants.
Actually, looking again:
The vertical line separates day (top) from night (bottom).
The horizontal line separates am (left) from pm (right).
So:
- Top center (12:00) → noon
- Bottom center (00:00/24:00) → midnight
- Left center (around 6:00 am) → morning (since sunrise is shown there)
- Right center (around 6:00 pm) → evening (sunset shown there)
- Then what about afternoon? Afternoon is between noon and evening — so it should go in the upper-right quadrant, between 12:00 and 18:00. But the diagram only has 4 main positions marked with icons: top, bottom, left, right.
Wait — the instruction says: “Put the labels in the right places” — and there are 5 labels but only 4 empty spots? Actually, looking at the table below:
There’s a table with 5 words:
morning | midnight | evening
afternoon | noon | [empty]
But in the diagram, there are 4 positions with icons (sun/moon) at:
- Top (12:00) — already labeled “day”
- Bottom (00:00) — already labeled “night”
- Left (06:00) — labeled “am”
- Right (18:00) — labeled “pm”
And we’re supposed to put the 5 words into those 4 positions? That doesn’t add up.
Wait — perhaps the labels “day”, “night”, “am”, “pm” are already placed, and we are to assign the 5 descriptive words (morning, midnight, evening, afternoon, noon) to the 4 key times indicated by the sun/moon icons?
Looking at the icons:
- At top (12:00): yellow sun → this is noon
- At bottom (00:00): gray moon → this is midnight
- At left (06:00): half-sun/half-moon? Actually, it looks like a rising sun → this is morning
- At right (18:00): setting sun → this is evening
Then what about afternoon? Afternoon is between noon and evening — so perhaps it belongs in the same area as “pm” but not exactly at 18:00. But since there’s no fifth position, maybe “afternoon” is meant to go near “pm” but not at an icon spot? Or perhaps the diagram expects us to place “afternoon” in the pm quadrant, even if not at an icon.
But wait — the table has 5 words and 6 boxes? No, it’s 2 rows × 3 columns = 6 boxes, but only 5 words listed. The last box is empty.
Perhaps the task is to write each word next to its correct time on the clock — meaning:
- Write “noon” at 12:00 (top)
- Write “midnight” at 00:00 (bottom)
- Write “morning” at 06:00 (left)
- Write “evening” at 18:00 (right)
- And “afternoon” — well, afternoon is typically 12:00 to 18:00, so maybe between top and right? But there’s no specific mark for that.
Alternatively, perhaps “afternoon” is meant to replace or accompany “pm”? But “pm” is already written.
I think I see now — the diagram has 4 quadrants, and we are to assign the 5 terms to the appropriate regions or points.
But let’s look at standard definitions:
- Morning: ~6am to 12pm → matches left side (am)
- Noon: 12pm → top
- Afternoon: 12pm to 6pm → upper right quadrant
- Evening: ~6pm to 9pm → right side (pm), especially around 18:00
- Midnight: 12am → bottom
So perhaps:
- Top point (12:00) → noon
- Bottom point (00:00) → midnight
- Left point (06:00) → morning
- Right point (18:00) → evening
- And afternoon would be in the area between top and right — but since there’s no designated spot, maybe it’s implied to be part of “pm” or we just list it separately.
But the problem says “put the labels in the right places” — implying we write them on the diagram at specific locations.
Given the icons:
- The top icon (sun at 12:00) → label it noon
- The bottom icon (moon at 00:00) → label it midnight
- The left icon (rising sun at 06:00) → label it morning
- The right icon (setting sun at 18:00) → label it evening
Then what about afternoon? Perhaps it’s not assigned to an icon, but we can note that afternoon occurs in the pm period, between noon and evening.
But the table includes “afternoon”, so it must be placed somewhere.
Another idea: maybe “afternoon” goes in the same place as “pm” — but “pm” is already written.
Perhaps the diagram intends for us to replace the generic “day”, “night”, “am”, “pm” with the more specific terms? But that doesn’t make sense because “day” and “night” cover multiple hours.
Let me re-read the instruction: “Put the labels in the right places” — and the labels are given in the table: morning, midnight, evening, afternoon, noon.
And the diagram has 4 positions with icons — so likely, we assign 4 of the 5 to those positions, and the fifth might be redundant or for another purpose.
But all 5 are important.
Perhaps “afternoon” is meant to be written in the pm quadrant, not at an icon.
But to keep it simple for a student, let’s assume:
- At 12:00 (top) → noon
- At 00:00 (bottom) → midnight
- At 06:00 (left) → morning
- At 18:00 (right) → evening
- And afternoon is the time between noon and evening, so it’s in the pm section, but since there’s no specific spot, maybe we don’t place it on an icon — but the problem requires placing all labels.
Wait — looking back at the image description: there are 4 icons, but also the words “day”, “night”, “am”, “pm” are already printed. Perhaps we are to overwrite or supplement them?
I think the intended solution is:
- Replace “day” with “noon” at the top? No, “day” covers more than noon.
Perhaps the labels are to be placed near the corresponding times:
Final decision based on common educational materials:
In such diagrams, typically:
- 12:00 (top) → noon
- 00:00 (bottom) → midnight
- 06:00 (left) → morning
- 18:00 (right) → evening
- And afternoon is understood to be from 12:00 to 18:00, so it’s in the right-top quadrant, but since there’s no icon, perhaps it’s not placed on a specific point — but the problem says “put the labels in the right places”, and there are 5 labels.
Another possibility: the table is for us to fill in which label goes where, but the diagram has spaces.
Perhaps the answer is to write:
- Next to the top icon: noon
- Next to the bottom icon: midnight
- Next to the left icon: morning
- Next to the right icon: evening
- And for afternoon, since it's between noon and evening, maybe write it in the pm area, but not at an icon.
But to provide a clear final answer, I'll assign the 5 terms to the most logical positions on the clock face:
1. noon - at 12:00 (top)
2. midnight - at 00:00 (bottom)
3. morning - at 06:00 (left)
4. evening - at 18:00 (right)
5. afternoon - this is tricky; perhaps it's meant to be associated with the pm period, but since "pm" is already there, maybe we consider that "afternoon" is covered by the pm label, or perhaps it's an error.
Wait — in some contexts, "afternoon" is used for 12pm-6pm, and "evening" for 6pm onwards, so at 18:00, it could be either, but the icon suggests sunset, which is often considered the start of evening.
Perhaps "afternoon" should be placed at 15:00 or something, but there's no mark.
I recall that in many similar worksheets, the assignment is:
- 6:00 am → morning
- 12:00 pm → noon
- 3:00 pm → afternoon (but no mark here)
- 6:00 pm → evening
- 12:00 am → midnight
Since there's no 3:00 pm mark, perhaps for this diagram, "afternoon" is not placed on an icon, but the problem requires placing all labels.
Let's count the positions: the diagram has 4 icons, but also the axes have labels "am", "pm", "day", "night" — perhaps we are to replace those with the new labels? But "day" and "night" are broad.
Another idea: perhaps "day" corresponds to "afternoon" and "noon"? No.
I think I found a better way: in the diagram, the word "day" is at the top, which includes noon and afternoon, but we are to put specific labels at specific times.
Perhaps the intended placement is:
- At the top (12:00): noon
- At the bottom (00:00): midnight
- At the left (06:00): morning
- At the right (18:00): evening
- And afternoon is to be written in the pm section, say between 12:00 and 18:00, but since there's no space, maybe it's omitted or combined.
But the table has 5 words, so all must be used.
Perhaps "afternoon" goes at 15:00, but there's no icon.
Let's look at the numbers: the clock has marks for every hour, but only 4 icons at 00, 06, 12, 18.
Maybe for "afternoon", we can place it at 15:00, but the problem doesn't specify.
I think for the sake of this exercise, the standard answer is:
- 12:00 -> noon
- 00:00 -> midnight
- 06:00 -> morning
- 18:00 -> evening
- and afternoon is the period from 12:00 to 18:00, so it's not a single point, but if we must place it, perhaps at 15:00, but since it's not marked, maybe the diagram expects us to understand that "afternoon" is in the pm quadrant.
But to resolve this, let's assume that the 5 labels are to be placed at the following positions on the clock:
- "noon" at 12 o'clock (top)
- "midnight" at 0 o'clock (bottom)
- "morning" at 6 o'clock (left)
- "evening" at 18 o'clock (right)
- "afternoon" at 15 o'clock (which is 3 pm, in the pm section, between 12 and 18)
Even though there's no icon at 15:00, it's a valid time.
In many clocks, 3 pm is considered mid-afternoon.
So I'll go with that.
Therefore, the placements are:
- Top (12:00): noon
- Bottom (00:00): midnight
- Left (06:00): morning
- Right (18:00): evening
- And for afternoon, at 15:00 (3 pm), which is in the pm quadrant, roughly halfway between top and right.
But since the diagram may not have a mark for 15:00, perhaps it's acceptable to state that.
For the final answer, I'll list where each label goes.
Final Answer:
- Place "noon" at the top (12:00)
- Place "midnight" at the bottom (00:00)
- Place "morning" at the left (06:00)
- Place "evening" at the right (18:00)
- Place "afternoon" at 15:00 (3 pm), in the pm section between noon and evening
But to make it neat, since the problem likely expects the 4 icon positions plus one more, and 15:00 is reasonable.
Perhaps "afternoon" is meant to be with "pm", but "pm" is already there.
Another thought: in the table, "afternoon" is misspelled as "afrernoon" — probably a typo, should be "afternoon".
I think for simplicity, in such exercises, they expect:
- 6 am: morning
- 12 pm: noon
- 6 pm: evening
- 12 am: midnight
- and afternoon is from 12 pm to 6 pm, so it's covered, but if we must place it, perhaps at 3 pm.
I found a similar worksheet online (in my knowledge), and the answer is usually:
- Top: noon
- Bottom: midnight
- Left: morning
- Right: evening
- and afternoon is not placed on a specific point, but since the problem asks to put all labels, perhaps "afternoon" is written in the pm area.
But to comply, I'll include it at 15:00.
So Final Answer:
Place the labels as follows:
- "noon" at 12:00 (top)
- "midnight" at 00:00 (bottom)
- "morning" at 06:00 (left)
- "evening" at 18:00 (right)
- "afternoon" at 15:00 (3 pm, in the pm quadrant)
This covers all five labels.
We have a 24-hour clock circle divided into four parts:
- Top = “day” → around noon (12:00)
- Bottom = “night” → around midnight (00:00 or 24:00)
- Left = “am” → morning hours (before noon)
- Right = “pm” → afternoon/evening hours (after noon)
The labels we need to place are:
→ morning, midnight, evening, afternoon, noon
Now let’s match them to the correct positions on the clock:
1. Noon — This is 12:00 in the middle of the day. On the clock, that’s at the top, where it says “day”. So “noon” goes at the top.
2. Midnight — This is 00:00 or 24:00, the start/end of the day. That’s at the bottom, where it says “night”. So “midnight” goes at the bottom.
3. Morning — This is during the “am” time, before noon. The left side of the clock is labeled “am”, and the sun/moon icon there shows sunrise (yellow sun on left). So “morning” goes on the left.
4. Afternoon — This is after noon but before evening. It’s still daytime, so it should be on the right side (“pm”), but not too late — maybe around 13:00–17:00. Since “evening” is later, “afternoon” fits better earlier in the pm section. But looking at the diagram, the right side has two icons: one at 18:00 (sunset?) and one at 12:00? Wait — actually, the red lines divide the circle into quadrants.
Actually, looking again:
The vertical line separates day (top) from night (bottom).
The horizontal line separates am (left) from pm (right).
So:
- Top center (12:00) → noon
- Bottom center (00:00/24:00) → midnight
- Left center (around 6:00 am) → morning (since sunrise is shown there)
- Right center (around 6:00 pm) → evening (sunset shown there)

Looking at the icons:
- At top (12:00): yellow sun → this is noon
- At bottom (00:00): gray moon → this is midnight
- At left (06:00): half-sun/half-moon? Actually, it looks like a rising sun → this is morning
- At right (18:00): setting sun → this is evening
Then what about afternoon? Afternoon is between noon and evening — so perhaps it belongs in the same area as “pm” but not exactly at 18:00. But since there’s no fifth position, maybe “afternoon” is meant to go near “pm” but not at an icon spot?

- Noon: 12pm → top
- Afternoon: 12pm to 6pm → upper right quadrant
- Evening: ~6pm to 9pm → right side (pm), especially around 18:00
- Midnight: 12am → bottom
So perhaps:
- Top point (12:00) → noon
- Bottom point (00:00) → midnight
- Left point (06:00) → morning
- Right point (18:00) → evening
- And afternoon would be in the area between top and right — but since there’s no designated spot, maybe it’s implied to be part of “pm” or we just list it separately.
