We know that it is morning, when
              the sun rises. The sun rises in the

              east. We go to school in the

              morning.








                                                                When the sun is high in the sky, it

                                                                is  noon  or  mid-day.  At  noon,  our

                                                                shadow  is  shortest.  Time  after  12

                                                                noon is called afternoon. We come

                                                                back from school in the afternoon.




              When it becomes dark, it is the

              night time. Night comes after

              evening when the sun sets

              completely. The sun cannot be seen

              anymore. We can see the moon
              and the stars at night. Night is the

              time to sleep.




              This is the way by which we can tell that a day has passed, and the
              time is passing by too.


              Clocks and Watches                                       Some animals tell us when a day

                                                                       begins.  Cocks  and  crow  and
              To  be  able  to  tell  the  exact  time
                                                                       birds chirp when the sun rises.
              we  use  clocks  and  watches.  A

              clock has two hands one big and one small.
