One of the first things you’ll learn is how to tell time to the half-hour, which means knowing what the clock looks like when it’s halfway between two hours (for example, 2:30 is halfway between 2:00 and 3:00).
To help you practice this skill, we’ve provided some worksheets that ask you to draw the hands of a clock according to the time given. Each worksheet will show you a picture of a clock with the hour hand (the shorter hand) and the minute hand (the longer hand) missing. Your job is to draw these hands to show the correct time.
For example, if the worksheet says “draw the hands for 2:30,” you’ll need to draw the hour hand pointing directly at the “2” and the minute hand pointing directly at the “6” (which is halfway between the “3” and the “6” on the clock face).
Remember, it’s important to take your time and be careful when drawing the hands of the clock. If you’re not sure what time it is, ask a teacher or parent for help! And don’t worry if you make mistakes – that’s part of the learning process. Just take your time, practice, and have fun!
