Introduction
10 minutesBegin by asking students what they know about numbers and time. Encourage them to share any previous knowledge they have.
2
Numbers
15 minutesIntroduce numbers 1 to 10 using flashcards. Show each number and have students repeat after you. Practice counting from 1 to 10 together. Next, introduce numbers 11 to 20 using flashcards and repeat the process. Continue with numbers 21 to 30 and so on until you reach 100. To reinforce learning, play a game where you call out a number, and students must write it on the whiteboard. You can gradually increase the difficulty by saying numbers out of order or skipping some.
3
Explaining Time
15 minutesShow students an analog clock and explain how it works. Go over the hour and minute hands, emphasizing the numbers and how to read the time. Show a digital clock and explain that it displays time in numbers. Practice reading different times, such as 2:30, 4:15, and 6:45. Use pictures of daily routines (e.g., waking up, eating lunch) and ask students to tell the time they think each activity occurs.

Reading Activity
15 minutesDistribute a short reading passage, read it together and have pupils answer the questions.
5
Practice and Application
10 minutesDivide the class into pairs and give each pair a set of flashcards with numbers, dates, or times. One student shows a card, and the other must say the correct word or phrase.

Conclusion
5 minutesReview what the students have learned in this lesson. Ask a few students to share examples of numbers, dates, and times with the class.
