FAQ
What should students look for on an analog clock to read whole hours?⌄
Students check that the minute hand points straight up to 12, then read the number the hour hand points to — that number is the current hour.
Why is teaching whole hours before half hours and quarter hours important?⌄
Whole hours are the simplest reading because the minute hand is at a clear landmark (12); half and quarter hours add complexity by requiring students to interpret intermediate minute-hand positions.
Which CCSS standard covers telling time in 1st grade?⌄
CCSS 1.MD.B.3 requires students to tell and write time in hours and half-hours using both analog and digital clocks.
