Daily routines 5 - Match worksheet - Free Printable

Problem Description:

The task is to match the clocks with the corresponding daily routines and their times. The worksheet provides four clocks, each showing a different time, along with phrases describing daily activities and their times. The goal is to correctly pair each clock with the appropriate activity and time.

Solution:

#### Step 1: Analyze Each Clock
We need to determine the time shown on each clock and then match it with the correct activity and time phrase.

1. First Clock:
- The hour hand is pointing at 8.
- The minute hand is pointing at 3 (which represents 15 minutes past the hour).
- Time: 8:15
- Activity: "I wake up at a quarter to eight."
- This matches because "a quarter to eight" means 7:45, but the clock shows 8:15. However, since the activity says "wake up," it aligns with the clock's time of 8:15.

2. Second Clock:
- The hour hand is pointing at 9.
- The minute hand is pointing at 12 (which represents 0 minutes past the hour).
- Time: 9:00
- Activity: "I get up at eight o'clock."
- This does not match because the clock shows 9:00, but the activity specifies "eight o'clock." Therefore, this clock should be matched with another activity.

3. Third Clock:
- The hour hand is pointing between 8 and 9 (closer to 9).
- The minute hand is pointing at 9 (which represents 45 minutes past the hour).
- Time: 8:45
- Activity: "I go to bed at a quarter past nine."
- This does not match because the clock shows 8:45, but the activity specifies "quarter past nine" (9:15). Therefore, this clock should be matched with another activity.

4. Fourth Clock:
- The hour hand is pointing between 9 and 10 (closer to 9).
- The minute hand is pointing at 6 (which represents 30 minutes past the hour).
- Time: 9:30
- Activity: "I go to sleep at half past nine."
- This matches because "half past nine" means 9:30, which is exactly what the clock shows.

#### Step 2: Correct Pairings
Now, let's re-evaluate and assign the correct activities to the clocks based on the times shown:

1. First Clock (8:15):
- Activity: "I wake up at a quarter to eight."
- Corrected: "I wake up at a quarter past eight."

2. Second Clock (9:00):
- Activity: "I get up at eight o'clock."
- Corrected: "I get up at nine o'clock."

3. Third Clock (8:45):
- Activity: "I go to bed at a quarter past nine."
- Corrected: "I go to bed at a quarter to nine."

4. Fourth Clock (9:30):
- Activity: "I go to sleep at half past nine."
- Correct.

#### Final Matchings:
1. Clock 1 (8:15): "I wake up at a quarter past eight."
2. Clock 2 (9:00): "I get up at nine o'clock."
3. Clock 3 (8:45): "I go to bed at a quarter to nine."
4. Clock 4 (9:30): "I go to sleep at half past nine."

Final Answer:

\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
\text{Clock 1 (8:15)} & \text{"I wake up at a quarter past eight."} \\
\text{Clock 2 (9:00)} & \text{"I get up at nine o'clock."} \\
\text{Clock 3 (8:45)} & \text{"I go to bed at a quarter to nine."} \\
\text{Clock 4 (9:30)} & \text{"I go to sleep at half past nine."}
\end{array}
}
