Teaching Children The Time
Why Aramazu?
Aramazu is a new interactive approach to teaching children how to tell the time that is easy to teach because it uses logic on which they can fix their learning, gaining fast results.
How Does It Work?
Through online stories, children build a visual concept of time using the shape of a mountain to provide a mental image of the hour. Colourful interactive Aramazu teaching clocks presented with an iconic phrase helps children to ‘picture’ time, removing the need for traditional rote learning.

Why It Works?
Addressing the four main learning styles using images, physical activities, tactile clocks and an easy iconic phrase, children easily remember how to tell the time. Trialled for over three years within the classroom, it has a proven track record. (Click here to see what teachers are saying).

Aramazu has two starting points, for children just starting to count to 12 and for children already counting to 60.
For older children counting to 60 – upper KS/1 (Key Stage 1) and KS/2 (Key Stage 2) – a fast track story – The Learn to Tell the Time Right Now Book, identical concept in a different setting without the fairy tale.
