To solve this worksheet, you need to draw the hour hand (the short hand) and the minute hand (the long hand) on each clock to match the time written below it.
Here is the step-by-step guide for each clock:
1. Mario gets up at 6:00
*
Hour Hand: Point directly at the
6.
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
12.
2. Rudi brushes his teeth at 6:15
*
Hour Hand: Point just a little bit past the
6 (towards the 7).
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
3.
3. Lisa takes a bath at 6:45
*
Hour Hand: Point almost at the
7 (it should be close to 7, but not quite there yet).
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
9.
4. Brian eats breakfast at 7:00
*
Hour Hand: Point directly at the
7.
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
12.
5. Dina drinks milk at 7:15
*
Hour Hand: Point just a little bit past the
7 (towards the 8).
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
3.
6. Victoria eats her cereal at 7:30
*
Hour Hand: Point exactly halfway between the
7 and the
8.
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
6.
7. Sam gets the bus at 7:30
*
Hour Hand: Point exactly halfway between the
7 and the
8.
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
6.
8. Tim talks to friends on the bus at 7:45
*
Hour Hand: Point almost at the
8 (close to 8, but not quite there).
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
9.
9. Lala gets to school at 8:00
*
Hour Hand: Point directly at the
8.
*
Minute Hand: Point directly at the
12.
Final Answer:
Draw the clock hands as described above:
-
6:00 & 7:00 & 8:00: Short hand on the hour number, long hand on 12.
-
:15 times: Short hand slightly past the hour, long hand on 3.
-
:30 times: Short hand halfway between hours, long hand on 6.
-
:45 times: Short hand almost at the next hour, long hand on 9.
