How to Tell Time

Watch this 5 minute video, Learning the Clock

Lets Review

The hands on the clock:

• The short hand on the 10 is the hours
  
  
• The long hand on the 2 is the minutes
  
  
• The skinny hand just past the 6 is the seconds

How to count minutes and hours

• To find the hour, look what 2 hours the short hand is in between, the hour is the number the short hand just passed. For example, if the short hand is in between numbers 2 and 3 it is 2 o'clock because it hasn't reached 3 yet. 
  
• To find the minutes, count by 5 minute increments starting with the number 12 being 0. Number 6 is 30 and when you reach 12 it starts over at 0. There are 4 tick marks in between each 5 minute increment.
