Matching Analog Clocks and Times
Overview
An analog clock helps us to know what time it is. Analog clocks are often round, like a circle.
They use numbers and hands. A clock has a big hand and a small hand.
Look at the clock below:
The big hand is on the twelve. This tells us that it is _______ o’clock.
To read the hour on the clock, look at the small hand.
The time is 10 o’clock.
We can also write it like this: 10:00
Let’s take a look at some other clock examples.
Look at the clock. The big hand is on the six. This tells us that it is half past the hour of _______ or ____: 30.
To read the hour on the clock, look at the small hand. Look to see which two numbers it falls between. On this clock, the small hand falls between 6 and 7. It is past 6:00, but not yet 7:00.
The time is six thirty.
We can also write it like this: 6:30
What is the time?
11:00
Let’s look at another example:
