Daylight Saving Time

Worksheet Description

Daylight Saving Time is the practice of setting the clocks forward by one hour during a specific period in the spring, typically the second Sunday in March in many parts of the United States. This adjustment is made to make better use of natural daylight during the longer days of spring and summer. By moving the clocks forward, people can enjoy more daylight in the evening hours, which is often associated with various benefits, including energy conservation and increased outdoor activities. Conversely, Daylight Saving Time ends in the fall when the clocks are set back by one hour to return to Standard Time, typically on the first Sunday in November, thereby reverting to the previous time schedule.
