L'heure - Telling Time in French - 12 Hour Clock - Battleship Games - Bataille Navale

Use this classic game format to have your students practice telling time in French using a 12 hour clock. This is a NO PREP activity, just print and go. 5 versions of the game are included.

You may also be interested in my 24 hour clock battleship games or the bundle of both sets which includes this resource.

Students randomly place ships on their grid at the top of the sheet by drawing filled in circles. The number of circles for each of their six battleships is indicated at the top of the page. As they try to discover the location of their opponent's ships, they use the grid on the bottom of the sheet to keep track. Instructions are provided in English on each page. Have a look at the preview to see what these games look like.

A list of hours is written in the left column, and minutes are written on the top in numeric form. Students randomly match the hours on the left with minutes at the top. 

There is not an answer key included with this resource due to the number of possible responses. This game will give your students a chance to use vocabulary for telling time with a 12 hour clock such as: et quart, moins le quart, et demie, moins vingt, etc.

How to play:

Print out one page of the version of this game that you want to use per student. Students draw circles to represent their boats on the grid at the top of the game board. Students play against each other to try to find and eventually sink their opponent’s boats.

Eight hours (1 heure, 2 heures, etc) are written in the vertical column and minutes are written in the boxes at the top. To choose a square, the player must say an hour on the left along with minutes at the top.

All of the vocabulary they’ll need is written right on the game sheet. Each game sheet includes two battleship grids, one for the student and one for keeping track of guesses.
