To solve this task, we need to draw the hour and minute hands on each clock face based on the time written below it.
Let’s go step by step for each clock:
1.
3 o’clock
- The hour hand (shorter hand) points directly at 3.
- The minute hand (longer hand) points directly at 12.
→ Draw short hand at 3, long hand at 12.
2.
5 o’clock
- Hour hand points at 5.
- Minute hand points at 12.
→ Short hand at 5, long hand at 12.
3.
9 o’clock
- Hour hand points at 9.
- Minute hand points at 12.
→ Short hand at 9, long hand at 12.
4.
Half past 4
- “Half past” means 30 minutes, so the minute hand points at 6.
- The hour hand is halfway between 4 and 5 (because 30 minutes have passed since 4 o’clock).
→ Long hand at 6, short hand halfway between 4 and 5.
5.
Half past 7
- Minute hand at 6.
- Hour hand halfway between 7 and 8.
→ Long hand at 6, short hand between 7 and 8.
6.
Half past 11
- Minute hand at 6.
- Hour hand halfway between 11 and 12.
→ Long hand at 6, short hand between 11 and 12.
All times are correctly interpreted using standard analogue clock rules:
- On the hour → minute hand at 12, hour hand at the number.
- Half past → minute hand at 6, hour hand halfway between two numbers.
Final Answer:
Draw the hands as described above for each clock:
- 3 o’clock: short hand at 3, long hand at 12
- 5 o’clock: short hand at 5, long hand at 12
- 9 o’clock: short hand at 9, long hand at 12
- Half past 4: short hand between 4 and 5, long hand at 6
- Half past 7: short hand between 7 and 8, long hand at 6
- Half past 11: short hand between 11 and 12, long hand at 6
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of time worksheet hour and half past.
