Reading Clock for Half-Hour Intervals

Method Reading Clock for Half-Hour Intervals
  • Hours: The little hand points to the hour. Look at the number it’s on. If it’s between two numbers, choose the smaller one.
  • Minutes: The big hand points to the minutes. Look at the number it’s on. If it’s on 12, it’s 0 minutes (o’clock). If it’s on 6, it’s 30 minutes (half past).
Example
What time does this clock show?

Morning

  • The little hand points between 7 and 8. We pick the smaller one, so it’s 7. That’s the hour.
  • The big hand points to 6. That means 30 minutes.
  • It’s morning, so the time is 7:30 in the morning.
