Let's solve the "Telling Time" worksheet step by step. The goal is to determine the time shown on each clock and write it in the format "__ o'clock".
How to Read the Clocks:
- The
hour hand (shorter hand) points to the hour.
- The
minute hand (longer hand) points to 12 when it's exactly "o'clock".
- When the minute hand is at 12, it means the time is exactly on the hour.
