What is telling time?

Telling time is reading an analog clock, the short hand shows the hour, the long hand the minutes.

How to teach it

Teach the hour hand first, then half past and quarter past/to, then count by fives for five-minute times, and finally to the minute. Link analog to digital.

Worked example

7:30
Answer: 7:30

Common mistake

Reading the minute hand as the hour, and muddling 'quarter to' with 'quarter past'.
