Simple time steps
- Look at the hour hand.
- Look at the minute hand.
- Count minutes by fives when helpful.
- Connect the time to a daily activity.
Example
If the hour hand is near 3 and the minute hand is on 6, the time is 3:30.
That means half past 3.
Helper tip
Use a real clock and daily routines like meals, school, work, or bedtime.
