Telling Time to the Half Hour
Practice reading analog clocks to the half hour and build stronger time-telling skills.
⭐ Student Tips
The minute hand points straight down at the 6 when it’s “__:30.”
The hour hand sits between two numbers — the first number is the hour.
Example: If the hour hand is between 3 and 4, and the minute hand is on 6 → 3:30.
📘 Teaching Instruction
Introduce half-hour times as “30 minutes past” the hour.
Point out that the hour hand moves between numbers when the minute hand is at 30.
Use practice clocks or visuals; have students identify the hour first, then add “:30.”
Mix o’clock and half-hour times for review
