Tell Time to 5 Minutes: what children learn
Each number on the clock face stands for 5 minutes, so students skip count by 5s to read the minute hand. They write the time as hours and minutes with a colon, like 4:35.
Tell Time to 5 Minutes: worked example
The hour hand is between 4 and 5. The minute hand points to 7. 4:35
The minute hand on 7 means 7 × 5 = 35 minutes. The hour hand is past 4, so the time is 4:35.
Tell Time to 5 Minutes: a common mistake to watch for
Kids often write the number the long hand points to as the minutes, so a long hand on 7 becomes 4:07 instead of 4:35.
Tell Time to 5 Minutes: how to help at home or in class
Keep a sticky note next to the kitchen clock. Whenever you pass it, have your child run a finger around the face counting by 5s up to the minute hand, then write the time on the note. Do it before a show starts or before dinner. Check your child’s notes together at the end of the day. When 4:35 and 9:50 both come out right, drawing the time is next.
