On an interesting clock note. Yes, analogue clocks are in school, but at home, kids are surrounded by digital clocks on their screens.
So we are getting kids who can easily reach a digital clock, but are struggling with basics “short hand means hour”

I mean, they’re used everywhere still and aren’t exactly a dated form of timekeeping or anything.

The newer generation might not know how to read them.

I’m forcing my kids to learn it. Both digital and analog clocks have use cases, but the truth is that analog clocks are simply faster to parse.
