Telling Time -Hour and Half Hour

When we were in regular session, some students were curious about learning how to tell time and what the hands meant on the clock. When I introduce the concept of telling time to my students, I usually focus solely on telling the time based upon the hour and half hour marks. I start with introducing the difference between the Little Hand indicating the hour and the Big Hand indicating the minutes. We do some samples together as a class and then I ask them to practice telling me where the Little/Big Hands are on the clock and what they mean. Once students understand the meaning of the hour and minute hands, I will introduce the concept of the half hour.

Here is a video  that has a catchy song to help with remembering the hour and half hour concepts: TellingTime to the Half Hour and Hour Song

Here is another video that is more instructional with teaching how to tell time to the hour and half hour: Instructional Video Telling Time to the Half Hour

Below is an image of a clock that may help with showing the Hour and Minute marks. I have also included it as a word document in case you want to print it and practice drawing different times.
