Clocks gave people a way to know the exact time. Before clocks, people used the sun or fire to tell when it was morning or night, but with clocks, you could know exactly what hour it was! Clocks made life easier because everyone could do things together at the same time, like go to school or start work. This changed how we live and think about time.
Examples
- A farmer used the sun to know when to start work.
- A teacher started class at exactly 8:00 AM because of the clock.
- A child knew it was lunchtime when the clock showed noon.
