DO THE CLOCKS GO FORWARD OR BACK?
As you know, every year in the Spring and in the Autumn we adjust our clocks by one hour to take advantage of the changing light conditions as the days get longer or shorter depending on which time of the year it is. Have you ever wondered how to remember that in the Spring we lose an hour in bed (by putting the clocks forward) and in the Autumn we gain an hour in bed (by putting the clocks back)?
To do so we must learn that another word for Autumn used by Americans is Fall (imagine the leaves falling off the trees). So once we know that, by remembering the following little phrase, we will always know whether to put our clocks forward or back:
SPRING Forward, FALL back.
