Let's solve the "Telling Time" worksheet step by step. The task is to
write the time for each clock, using the format "
__ o'clock". This means we're only looking at
whole hours (i.e., when the minute hand is pointing at 12), and we need to identify what hour the
hour hand is pointing to.

🔍 How to Read Each Clock:
- The
minute hand (longer one) points to
12 → it's exactly on the hour.
- The
hour hand (shorter one) points to a number → that’s the hour.
Let’s go through each clock:
